Bullard baits bloggers, launches blog
Last week, Sunday Times columnist David Bullard caused an uproar in the South African blogosphere with his column, “Name and shame offensive bloggers”. This week, he has become the first Sunday Times columnist to launch his own blog.
In yesterday’s column, “In the blogosphere everybody’s a scream”, Bullard admits that he was “hoping for a general exchange of moderately insulting banter, but I have to say that the majority of the comments fall way short when it comes to intelligent invective… The final irony is that, thanks to the bloggers, I now have my own , which serves me right. I should have kept my mouth shut.”
Meanwhile, the bloggers have challenged Bullard (and four other newspaper columnists) to “a public battle of wit and journalistic skill” in aid of literacy and charity on 28 September 2007.
