An interesting follow-up to the Forbes shallow journalism story (my unrepentant description) yesterday which described how the magazine portrayed blogs and bloggers as the source of all evil.

In a comment yesterday to Steve Rubel's critical post, podcaster John Furrier says he's interviewing Forbes' proprietor Steve Forbes about the benefits of social media:

On Monday I will be posting a podcast on PodTech.net with Forbes president Steve Forbes where Steve talks about the benefits of social media (blogging and podcasting). It will be interesting to see how the writer response when his boss basically says the opposite of his story. Look for the podcast on Monday morning.

Interesting indeed. I'm sure this story will continue to build.
