I have taken the liberty of creating a Blogs the Main Stream Media Read Redux, if you will. The big question is, “Howard, what blogs do you read?”
Howard Mortman knows everyone who is anyone in Politics and “inside the beltway.” Howard is funny and fun to be with — and whip smart.
Howard Mortman writes a series on his blog, Extreme Mortman, called Blogs The Famous Media Reads. It is a must read.
