Wonkette.com, instapundit.com, andrewsullivan.com and joetrippi.com spoke to Charlie Rose.

Joe Trippi talked about context and podcasting. Wonkette talked about the immediacy of reader commentary. Instapundit suggested that major newspapers use blog commenters as de-facto assistant editors and fact-checkers. Andrewsullivan was a good guest as always.
