Tuesday night I was interviewed about Pia's and my current research into Danish Politician's weblogs. You can hear the interview here - it's approx. 21 minutes into the programme the feature on weblogs starts - with an interview with Timme Bisgaard Munk from Kommunikationsforum.

I'm a bit unhappy about the interview, having heard it. It comes across as if the Danes we interviewed said that they do not find weblogs by politicians credible. To be more precise, the Danes we interviewed only commented on communication via the internet in general, not on weblogs specifically. It is true that many of the people we talked to found internet communication by politicians less credible, because they were not questioned or probed by journalists, like they are on tv or radio.
- Hopefully, weblogs will, could and should come across as more credible communication than internet communication in general, at least when the commentary function is implemented, because readers are able to ask the critical questions here - and get an immediate response. But of course the discussion on the comments that I also had with the journalist was not part of the broadcast.
