Do not - I repeat - do not ignore Ben Holder's weblog. The Greensboro Troublemaker gets a fine article in today's N&R.
"...His latest target of guerrilla journalism is Guilford County commissioner Melvin "Skip" Alston. Alston...accused city building officials last month of overreacting to Holder's blog rants when they sent inspectors to visit the apartment complex. the former head of the state NAACP legitimized Holder as a rabble-rouser, the mosquito that won't go away."
Shortly after he started blogging, I emailed Ben suggesting that he might consider toning it down a little lest he get marginalized as being a bit over-the-top. Obviously he ignored my advice - and just as obviously - he was right in doing so. Keep it up Ben - you're doing good things.
