Terry Mattingly bemoans the loss of religion writers at newspapers. "Do not click 'comment' and tell me that you get all the news you need from the Internet and from blogs," he tells readers. "It takes real money to pay people to report and edit real information. Most of what happens in weblogs -- like this one, frankly -- is secondary writing and criticism. We are all like those little fish stuck on the flanks of big sharks. Someone has to fund the shark, which does the real hunting."
