RONY ABOVITZ -- the original DAVOS blogger -- speaks out on the resignation of CNN's Eason Jordan. Quotable:
My role? I can not claim to have been on the sideline of the avalanche, having accidentally set it off with the toss of a snowball. I rode in the with the blogger Huns, pointing out weaknesses in the gates of Rome, breaching it with all of them. My voice is not loud enough. I am wielding a sword, but it is not the sword which I hope prevails. It is the book which I am wielding in my other hand, the book of Rome restored, of its ideals which have far decayed. Has this Rome ever existed, this Rome of truth, ethics, morality, fairness, and justice? Or has this Rome always been corrupt, amoral, a fourth estate as rotten as the others?
