Daniel Glover has written a nice piece on Cory Maye and the blogosphere for The Hotline.

Media coverage thus far still seems to be limited to features of the “watching the blogs” variety. But hey, that’s better than nothing.

I’m really not all that interested in the “blogs vs. the MSM” angle of this story. Nor am I interested in the “why aren’t the liberals helping this guy instead of Tookie” angle. Blogs all over the political map have weighed in on this, generally overwhelmingly in favor of Maye. If it takes a NY Times investigation or Barbara Streisand’s activism to get Maye some justice, I’m more than okay with that (though given that Gov. Barbour is one of the people we need to convince, the latter would probably be counterproductive).

Anyone who wants to help us get this guy a new trial, a pardon, or clemency is welcome. Gun rights activist, civil libertarian, or Hollywood liberal — I don’t particularly care how you got here.
