Take two thick slices of Noonie's day old bread, smear Honey Cup honey mustard
liberally over both. Cover both slices with green leaf lettuce. Then on one slice only lay smoked turkey on the lettuce,
a tomato slice on the turkey and sprinkle it with shredded carrot. Then on the lay a slice of provolone cheese over the
carrot then a green pepper ring on top of the cheese. Sprikle with sprouts. Cover with the other slice, lettuce side down.
The letuce should be stuck to the bread with honey mustard so it doesn't fall off when you turn it upside down to cover the
sandwich. Slice sandwich in half with a knife. Wrap in tightly in plastic wrap. Use too much wrap. Tape on label. Tadaaa!

Misattributed by Seven Days

Kevin Kelly fabricated a phrase out of whole cloth and attributed it to me in a story about PolitickerVT.com. From this week's Seven Days...
"...The anonymity of its editor in chief does raise credibility issues, insists Haik Bedrosian, a Burlington political activist who blogs on burlingtonpol.com. “Any website that’s produced anonymously should be scrutinized very carefully in regard to its accuracy,” he says. The content of all political blogs should in fact be regarded with skepticism because their producers are generally not professional journalists, Bedrosian adds, cautioning that politickervt.com thus demands “extra-skeptical” reading..." (emphasis added)
I told Kelly that anonymous blogs should be read with skepticism. Then he asked me "shouldn't all blogs be read with skepticism?" I said yes, but there's a big difference between a blogger you can just call and talk to on the phone, and one you can't contact and whose name you don't know. I said you should be "extra-skeptical" of anonymous blogs.
I never said anything about being skeptical because bloggers "are generally not professional journalists." Kelly, a supposedly professional journalist himself, made that part up.
Anybody see the irony in this? Professional journalists aren't all that. In fact, anytime I've ever been quoted by one, he or she has almost never gotten it exactly right. Maybe the pecking order should be this- If the blogger uses their real name: be skeptical. If the blogger is anonymous: be extra-skeptical. If it's a professional journalist: take it with a grain of salt.
Anyway. It's not like I care very much, and it's nice to get some ink and a link. But I thought I should clear that up.
Dear Haik, So I'm not totally anonymous, it's my real picture but I do use an alias. We did talk about how I use real names when it comes to my family while you do the reverse. So by your rule of thumb, where do we (you and me) or should we stand in the pecking order of reader trust? Yours truly, Ms. Jupiter and I'll also include Mr. Star

I love this post! I too have been misquoted and outed by a "professional" journalist in a Valerie-Plamish way.
