Political reporters no longer get to decide what's news. the days when a minister gave briefings to a dozen lobby correspondents, and thereby dictated the next day's headlines, are over. now, a thousand bloggers decide for themselves what is interesting. if enough of them are tickled then, bingo, you're news.
