Bob, I've probably offended most of the bloggers I know! It was tongue in cheek of course. I still find the original run down of newspaper readers v. funny.
I read the Bob meisters blog. Strangely enough the description given your blog might be far more applicable to various high profile Tory bloggers who seem to think that our country would be much better off run by a bunch of North American Neo-Conservatives.
I have, at some point, read all those blogs so I've no idea what that says about me.
It's very funny and certainly shouldn't be read into as much as this, but I think it shows people read blogs regardless of whether they expect to agree or disagree with them, such is the lure of the free internet.
With papers if you're going to stick 40p in Dacre's pocket you're probably going to already agree with the Mail's stance. If you're going to give the Independent 70p you probably believe the evidence of climate change.
But if you're reading a blog you're probably just interested in the debate so it doesn't require you to subscribe to a viewpoint. And as it's free, who cares?
