Link: Blair launches attack on UK media 'beast' | Uk News | News | Telegraph.

How amusing. Blair is so detached from reality that he thinks the soft ride he gets from the mainstream media is too aggressive, and is disappointed with the blogosphere.

Mr Blair said that the evolution of non-traditional media outlets was making matters worse, rather than better, as he had originally thought. "It used to be thought - and I include myself in this - that help was on the horizon. "New forms of communication would provide new outlets to by-pass the increasingly shrill tenor of the traditional media. "In fact, the new forms can be even more pernicious, less balanced, more intent on the latest conspiracy theory multiplied by five."

He should be glad it's just virtual. If some of us could only get our hands on him.... B^)
