If this room’s a-quakin’, this scribe’s a-takin’ (notes)

Those salivating moron bloggers, putting themselves in danger to blog about the huge earthquake off Jakarta:

Blogging has fried our brains. Instead of evacuating after the tremor, we, bloggers staying in high rise apartments, sit here n blog about it, oblivious to the risk should the building topple over or collapse. I, for one, was furiously typing away as the floor swayed under me instead of making plans to leave my apartment. Should I laugh or cry at this stupidity that has befallen me?

Shame on them for trying to imitate authentic journalists who selflessly report from dangerous places. I mean, the nerve! Thank God for brave media pundits like David Shaw for keeping bloggers in their place – with no legal recourse for sensitive reporting.
