Can the NY Times write about mom blogs without snark?

Rob Walker did this week.

Read Monetizing Motherhood in the NYT Sunday Magazine column Consumed, my totally favorite favorite-est column. (Although I do adore Virginia Heffernan and Amanda Hesser and God, I love Randy Cohen.)

His point:

Mommy Blogs +
Product Reviews +
Ads +
Disclosure of Gifts or Payment =

Sponsored Empowerment.

At least I think that’s the point. There’s a [-] before Disclosure in the visual but that doesn’t support the article. Or all the excellent quotes from my personal hero, Lisa Stone.

I think overall, it’s a great piece. What do you think of it?
