A print journalist writes me: "Every time I read anything about an LA Press Club event I always see your name along the lines of 'blogger Luke Ford.' I think bloggers are far more suited to celebrity than mere journalists!"
I don't think bloggers or journalists are more suited to celebrity. It depends more on the importance of your work and the intriguingness of the character you cut than upon your medium. I would not have received less media attention if I had been a print journalist or TV journalist or magazine journalist the past decade instead of a blogger so long as I broke as many stories and infuriated as many scary and powerful people.
