koganbotSo, they're holding confirmation hearings for bloggers these days.
Well, not actually. I misinterpreted this headline:
Live Blogging Holder's Confirmation Hearing
This could be interpreted as saying that a live blogger, Holder, is undergoing a confirmation hearing. I know who Eric Holder is, so at first I was trying to figure out if, unbeknownst to me, he has a reputation for live blogging as well as for lawyering, and that his role as live blogger has become relevant to his confirmation.
Another interpretation could be that there is a person, not named in the headline, who holds live blogging (meaning live blogging sessions, perhaps), and he is undergoing a confirmation hearing.
(Correct interpretation, which I arrived at reluctantly, is that if you click on the link you can read the NY Times reporter (Kate Phillips) live blogging Eric Holder's confirmation hearing.)
