Has CNN been checking out my blog?

I don't know. Maybe they finally read a copy of Hugh Hewitt's new book.

Either way, Hugh points to this transcript from CNN"s Inside Politics that sounds startlingly close to what I described in Which MSM Outlet will Get "It" First?... the "it' being the blogosphere.

Here's what I asked:

...the most interesting stuff is happening on the Center Right side of the blogosphere... ...who in the MSM is ready to break new ground, find new market share, and get serious about the stories emerging from the blogosphere?

Jacki Schechner is a "CNN Blog Reporter" that is surveying -- guess what? -- the center-right blogs for the hot topics of the day. In the broadcast, she mentioned Hugh, VodkaPundit, Powerline, LGF and the NRO's Corner... all within a couple of minutes.

For those of you keeping score at home... it looks like, of the old guard, CNN has landed the first blows.
