New Word For Corporate Shill Blogs

96 views

Dovetailing with the whole Wal-Marting Across America scandal, we thought flogs, for fake blogs, was pretty good.

Now Richard, on his Proceed At Your Own Risk blog, ups the ante.

"...commercial websites masquerading as blogs...I call them clogs."

Hell, why stop there? Why not just call 'em crocs?

Corporations are trying to leverage the same dubious media tactics on the internet they've used to subvert the so-called popular press. With the power of horde-based fact-checking, at least now we can unmask them quicker.
