Therefore, on this blog, this thread is the one for our comments on blogging as it fits both our interest and our knowledge. If inspired, we would (and likely some people did) track down the journalist blogs (like DeRusha's and McKenna's) where their comments are long and deep discussing journalistic ethics of source crediting or track down the marketing blogs where they are likely slamming the ethics skating of Target and their hired guns. But, I think I'm safe in saying The Deets is a general interest blog, a nightly news show and not a sunday morning talk show. So, I would venture that our focus is intact, chatting up to 20 comments on our interest. If someone desires focus on discussing Target or media or marketing or ethics, that is the power of the blogosphere...it must be out there somewhere, just not here in the 3 or so comments those postings earned from The Deets readership. My two cents...Cheers. :) In the interest of discussion, I would like to address Andy’s reference to ‘focus’–my opinion is that this thread IS the one where our comments belong on instead of the prior Target ones, and here is my reasoning why:

Minneapolis is a heavily meta media town, so it's not particularly surprising to see how much attention this particular post has received. Andy, don’t try that level-headed logic around here. :-)

Speakign as the guy who was Ed's source ... I have to ask ... Who cares who gets credit? The whole spirit of the blogosphere is that we work together to tell the story. Isn't the point of this to get Target to clean up their act? Did we forget why we wrote this? It's sort of silly that we've got more comments about who gets credit than about the Target scandal itself. Focus! Cheers, Andy Geez, guys.
