When I set out to write a column about staff journalists who write Web logs in their spare time, I found that there are two principal types of employed journalist bloggers:

2. Those who feel stymied by their media-company employers from writing what they want -- who look at the larger blog world and feel annoyed at their managers because they're not allowed such freedom of expression. ... [Editor&Publisher]
