Political reporters no longer get to decide what's news. The days when a minister gave briefings to a dozen lobby correspondents, and thereby dictated the next day's headlines, are over. Now, a thousand bloggers decide for themselves what is interesting. If enough of them are tickled then, bingo, you're news.

政治记者不再有权决定新闻内容。一位部长向十多位游说记者作简报，从而决定第二天的头条新闻的日子已经一去不复返了。现在，一千名博主自己决定什么是有趣的。如果有足够多的人被逗乐了，那么，宾果，你就是新闻了。
