Disdain for the system, or search for the truth?

Leading politician, Hazel Blears claimed this week that political blogs fuel a culture of cynicism and despair, but Sandi Toksvig, Chair of the BBC Radio 4 newquiz commented that the quote should continue....

"political blogs are written by people with disdain for the political system and politicians, who see their function as unearthing scandals, conspiracies and perceived hypocrisy." (Hazel Blears)

"Dam the electorate and their morbid facination with the truth" (addition by Sandi Toksvig)
