"Then why are you doing journalism?" he asks, brows drawing down with mockery. And, well, with a bit of confusion, too. He still doesn't really get journalism, admittedly. The first time he'd been exposed to any sort of news - unfiltered news, not just the propaganda shoveled down his throat by his creators - had been on Beta Colony, and it was weird, seeing the floating heads arguing their different opinions. It was interesting, but it's...confusing, too. Where's the profit in it? Well, the profit, of course, is when you use your journalism as a tool to change minds in the way you want - a more disguised form of advertising. But blogs don't do that, do they?

"Why are you telling other people what their opinion should be when you don't even know what yours is?"
