Helen Thomas Wonders If Bloggers Are Dangerous, Still In the Navy

The latest detached fugue from Aunt Bethany is a real corker.

As excerpted from a Huffington Post interview:

Q: Do you think technology is changing [journalism]? That a good reporter will always find a venue because there are so many media outlets now?

Thomas: No, but I do think it is kind of sad when everybody who owns a laptop thinks they're a journalist and doesn't understand the ethics. We do have to have some sense of what's right and wrong in this job. Of how far we can go. We don't make accusations without absolute proof. We're not prosecutors. We don't assume.

Q: So if there's this amateur league of journalists out there, trying to do what you do...

Thomas: It's dangerous.

If this sounds familiar, it's because Aunt B only has so many stories, so you have to forgive her if you heard this one back in March.
