The Columbia Journalism Review Daily directs us to this lovely meta meta blogger-on-blogger chat fest that ran in the recent issue of Wired. Former Wonkette Anna Marie Cox interviews Markos Moulitsas aka "Kos" about the lovely topic of baseball.

Mind you, they use the word snarky in the first sentence, and the topic of "baseball" is more or less "Kos' new network of sports blogs" so … yeah, they are basically talking about blogs. The Daily concludes that this whole shpeal is just one over-exposed blogger interviewing another — something of which they thought 2006 would never see the light of.

And then Kos drops this lovely piece of info on us, in regards to how important while simultaneously detached and apathetic he is.

"Do you know how many interviews I turned down today?" Moulitsas tells Cox at one point. "ABC, NBC, Charlie Rose, McLaughlin Group, not to mention a bunch of radio. If I were into self-promotion, I would have said yes to all of them."

See, because obviously this Wired piece is not self-promotion. It's just chatting about baseball which just happens to be a topic of his new blog network. And the Daily just happened to drop a Romenesko mention and Romenesko just happened to pick up the story.

No self-promotion going on here folks. Just keep movin', nothing to see.
