Pajamas Media

A week ago Tuesday Flap attended a media conference event at the L.A Athletic Club featuring Hugh Hewitt et al.

It has been reported here.

Pajamas Media was launched.

Now, Michelle Malkin has this piece on Pajamas Media Mania:

The New York Sun has an article about the effort by Roger Simon and others to launch a blogger news network:

In a dramatic sign that Web logs are going mainstream, three of the largest political blogs are banding together to form what is believed to be a first-of-its kind ad-supported network.

To broaden their appeal beyond national security issues, the three – ArmedLiberal.com, RogerLSimon.com, and LittleGreenFootballs.com – will receive editorial advice from the owner of one of the most heavily trafficked blogs, Instapundit.com’s Glenn Reynolds, among others.

The venture will be called Pajamas Media, a not-so-subtle reference to the September remarks of a CNN executive, Jonathan Klein, who said a typical blogger has “no checks and balances” and is just “a guy sitting in his living room in his pajamas.”

Impeccable timing: The news of this groundbreaking venture comes as newspaper circulation figures plummet. Here’s how to get in on the action if you haven’t already signed up.

Flap will be joining this venture and urges everyone in the blogosphere to at least check it out….here.
