- “In the past six years, the political blogosphere has grown by leaps and bounds, moving from an interesting curiosity to an enduring feature of the political landscape. Political bloggers are now regularly featured in the mainstream media. The 2007 Yearlykos convention, a gathering of the progressive “netroots”, drew all but one Democratic Presidential candidate while evoking the outrage of Fox News Channel’s Bill O’Reilly. Lenhart and Fox find that the blogosphere has become a major source of information for the American public, with 39% of adult internet users turning to the blogosphere as of July, 2006″. by Karpf D., Measuring Influence in the Political Blogosphere, Politics and Technology Review, pp. 33-41
