不久前,为了给今年美国大选预热,美国民主党和共和党分别邀请知名媒体记者和部分博客一起参加他们的大会,以前躲在互联网角落里传播猛料的博客们,第一次登上了大雅之堂。在克里和布什总统被正式提名为民主党和共和党候选人的大会上,博客首次成为可信赖的媒体。民主党在7月下旬举行的全国代表大会上已经将大会新闻的一部分通过博客网络发布出去。在会议期间,阅读政治类博客的美国读者增至约1300万。 Not long ago, in order to warm up this year’s U.S. presidential election, U.S. Democrats and Republicans invited well-known media reporters and some bloggers to participate in their conventions respectively. For the first time, bloggers who had hurriedly swiftly flirted with the news in the Internet corner boarded the Taiga Church. For the first time since Kerry and President Bush were officially nominated candidates for Democrats and Republicans, the blog became a credible media. At a National Assembly held in late July, Democrats have already released part of the news of the conference through the blog network. During the conference, the number of U.S. readers reading political blogs increased to about 13 million.
