Thanks to the often hilarious blog King Cockfight for noticing:
Earlier this week, Doc’s Political Parlor — or, as The Birmingham News calls it, “blogs on the Internet,” which are different, you know, from Blount County Weblogs that are usually printed on the backsides of dead livestock — posted an e-mail shot out by a Moore supporter promising he will announce a bid for governor on June 1.
That’s right. According to a Birmingham News article yesterday, Doc’s Political Parlor is “blogs on the Internet” and I am “some bloggers.”
The News article said that “a copy of [Julie Sanders' letter] began appearing on blogs on the Internet earlier this week,” though, in this instance, “blogs on the Internet” means “Doc’s Political Parlor” because according to a Google blog search the Parlor was the only blog to have the email posted before the News article ran.
Also, “Hobson said he never saw the letter until it was picked up by some bloggers.” I am some bloggers.
Here at “blogs on the Internet and Home of Lawn Mower Repair,” I’m just glad that anybody reads this stuff. More to come.

Danny you are the “King of All Media.” Great work, as always. You report, they read you.
the bham news sucks…want a story twisted around?? those are your folks…
Blog on the Internet as opposed to blogs in the river or blogs in the cesspool. What is wrong with the editorial minds of our local newspapers? You should demand to be cited appropriately Danny!
Good work my friend.
Danny,
Well done as always. Not surprising that these papers are relying on other peoples research, they fired all the reporters. All the Alabama papers do is regurgitate press releases from different groups. The Alabama Press will never break another big story, and that is in some ways sad.

Where have you gone Brett Blackledge?
PS I know the answer
Danny, you don’t get the credit you deserve. You break stories all the time and the AP and other papers take the credit for themselves.
Danny,
I come here everyday before i even open a news paper. Keep up the great work. You are the future!
You have info a full 24 hours before most print media. Thanks for your work!
P.S. Kay Ivey sent a detailed email to supporters declaring her intention to run for Governor with a full announcement in two weeks. I’ll link it if I can figure out how to do so.
The Ivey Campaign is looking for some positive signs before announcing. For example, if Satan purchases a Zamboni before the election, they figure they are in good sahpe . . .
Danny-just a sign of the good work you are doing-keep it up- I enjoy your work every day!
At least they now call you the owner of the site and not me :)
Thank you, folks, for the kind words and the encouragement. Let’s not kid ourselves though… love’m or hate’m, newspapers and other press outlets are crucially important to us. This blog may be interesting to the political junkies among us but it pales in impact and importance next to the real news outlets of the state.
Too funny, Jeff! Good memory.
Thanks again all for the kind words!
Danny
