Yellow Dog Journalism

Dallasblog.com | Gina Parker Ford !:
“The lack of diversity demonstrated by both writers and the writing [in Texas Monthly] may demand that the magazine's owners bring this longstanding work into modern day journalism which demands balance, accountability, and fairness.”
Ed Cognoski responds:

You mean like the balance, accountability and fairness we get in modern day journalism like Dallas Blog?

P.S. Sorry, I forgot to include the exclamation mark Dallas Blog adds to the author's name: "Gina Parker Ford !" And I forgot to mention features like spell checking and editing that modern journalism publications like Dallas Blog do away with that old line journalism was always fussy about.

Another poster defends Dallas Blog, saying, "This is not a magazine and Gina is not a paid reporter."

I'm guessing that this is meant as irony. Right?
