mostly over the last couple of years (searches intentionally limited just to the name of the blog, and not including the name of the blogger without a reference to the blog):
| Query | Mentions |
| InstaPundit | 480 |
| talkingpointsmemo.com or (marshall w/s talking points memo) | 223 |
| plural(Atrios) | 64 (the “plural” avoids “atrio,” but includes some false positives) |
| DailyKos | 25 |
| Volokh Conspiracy or volokh.com | 34 |
I omitted Andrew Sullivan and Mickey Kaus, who were already fairly big journalists before they started blogging.
Incidentally, this might help show why the media isn’t noticing the DailyKos controversy. They don’t notice us that much, period. Nothing to complain about — I’m glad at the attention the blog is getting, both from readers and from journalists — but it does put matters in perspective.
