Pour one out for Steve Gilliard 04 June 2007
I was shocked to read today that Steve Gilliard, author of The News Blog, my favorite blogs for the past few years died on Saturday. He did an amazing job summarizing the news of the day with biting commentary. Before I found his site, I’d do several hours of news surfing each day. Once I started following it, I didn’t really bother surfing news anymore, if Steve didn’t post about it, it probably wasn’t that interesting. Since he fell ill, I’ve pretty much stopped reading the news. Sure I’ll take a look at Daily Kos every now and then but without Steve’s wonderful commentary, it’s just not worth the time. My deepest condolences to his family and all his other readers.
