Now that's irksome

I know people from Bluff. They're good people, friendly people, interesting people.
I don't know Brent Proctor. I've been reading about him though and I'm unable to slot him into any of the three categories above. I don't find him amusing the way I do most people who comment on the southern blogs, people who take time to join the (often lighthearted and insubstantial) discussions on-line and add their own particular brand of whimsicality to whatever topic might be up for scrutiny.
Mr Proctor doesn't. Add, that is. He subtracts, significantly. As is his right, of course, but he's given the process a bad name,a bad taste and a bad rap but that's not what I've found irksome. I dismiss his 'contributions' in an instant but what's upset me today, is this headline in The Southland Times:

Board unable to censure blogger

Come on, you good folks at the Times! The cursing, spitting Mr Proctor isn't a blogger! Kylie Fowler's 'the blogger'. Paddy Lewis is 'the blogger. Dave Kennedy's 'the blogger'. I'm 'the blogger'.
The board may be unable to 'censure blogger', but the blogger's not the potty-mouthed problem.
Mr Proctor is a commenter.
You'd hardly call one of your letters-to-the-editor correspondents, "newspaper editor", would you?
Board unable to censure newspaper editor

See what I mean?
