"A successful blogger doesn’t need to understand ‘Journalism’ as much as they need to understand how to make to posts explaining how they are journalists, various top 10 style lists on what makes them a journalist and maybe mix in a few posts calling out people for bitching about what makes a journalist. At no point do they need to look into what it means because somehow that is beneath them… as a journalist.
Asking the question of “why” in front of an audience on the web often creates the illusion that you have the answer or the expertise. Ending a post title with a “?” should show that you are just as clueless as the audience reading the post. For some strange reason, on the web this can make you king."
