The Finkel-meister

Mark Finkelstein, a conservative blogger, works on three different media outlets. His blogging career started when he began writing snippets for NewsBusters. He tried to branch out and make his own blog called FinkelBlog in hopes of achieving Internet fame. The hits on his personal blog were not as common as NewBusters', however. Now, Finkelstein tag-teams both blog sites to share his conservative views. He also has his own Public Access show called Right Angle.

One question facing bloggers is this: If it is all about the hits, does that mean the editors and publishers have control over the bloggers ambitions to post? When Finkelstein began receiving more hits on NewsBusters he pretty much abandoned his personal site temporarily. Can a true blogger take a few months off, even if he or she is multitasking for other groups? Or is that all in the nature of blogging?
