I know a guy named Orin just like this. He has a blog, and he thinks this makes him a reporter! No seriously, when people ask him what he does, he really describes himself as a reporter! He hasn't worked in journalism for years, and is unemployed, sitting around and - you guessed it - publishing his blog!
The Internet has so 'lowered the bar' for entry into journalism it's not funny. It seems sometimes everyone with a pulse and a digit to press a keyboard has a blog! Pastis illustrates this very well with this strip!
