Spam is beyond a problem for everyone right now. Especially if you end up on one of the automated lists for Xrunner which is a computer posting program, it will attempt to leave 50+ complete spam comments per day. I hope Disqus has helped to alleviate the problem for you on some level, personally I'm using Comment Luv in combination with Askimet on my blog with varying degrees of success.

Carin, your comment about Parker's influence being 'stripped away' and 'reduced space for editorial' seems to say you aren't aware that he owns his own journal. And sells it to quite a large number of people who want his opinions. To the tune of somewhere north of $3m a year. A fairly good job by most standards. Nothing but the best in wines is a side benefit to the job.
I am not a fan of his. My sense of taste in wine is the opposite of his. I prefer subtle refined and elegant wines that speak of their terroir. Surprising, because he is so well known for his Bordeaux writings. Their wines are normally not "fruit bombs" at all.
I am aware of how large an influence he does have in the industry. He has caused a large group of very serious people to become experts on their own about wines as a result of his writings. There isn't a group in the industry that I am aware of that doesn't consider Parker in either positive or negative terms. Most are positive.
That said, it wouldn't surprise me if there are significant numbers of elements in the industry that want to bypass him. He has been shown to be complicit in more than one winery losing distribution because of his low scores.
He hasn't lost the keys to the kingdom, the kingdom has just installed a few more doors that they aren't locking at the moment. There really is a giant wine lake out there. It needs to be sold. Anyway possible.

I've been reading through your wine blog and have really enjoyed it. I was wondering if you would be willing to add a link to my wine club site/blog in your Wine Life Links section. My site is http://www.best-wine-club.com

In return, I could write a blog post referring my readers to your site and link to you. Let me know by emailing at admin @ best-wine-club.com

I feel dumb, but who is Robert Parker? Another thing, is California wine really all that great? I live in Missouri, so I've drinking our wine for quite some time. And I have to say that I love it, and it at a fraction of the price! I'm content drinking my 7.99 bottle of St. James Winery Friendship School Red wine.

Excellent site, keep up the good work. I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I’m glad I found your blog. Thanks,
A definite great read…

I think he was just protecting his livelihood. It's a self preservation type of attack really. Something that should be embraced moving forward instead of disparaging the medium.

Joel V — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 13:59:21 -0000

Your goddamn right I'm still pumped. I'm pumped for my kids and my
grandkids. Life is what it is for me and I'm at a disadvantage so I
suck it up and work harder. But it will be incrementally better for
my kids and incrementally better than that for my grandkids.

When I was 4 years old, how real was the possibility of a minority
president? Not very. Even 33 years later it's still a surprise.
Unlike what most people think change doesn't happen over night. This
presidential surprise was the closest thing to overnight change that
we'll see for this country. To think you'll see a difference in your
life immediately is naive.

Are you still pumped about this country now? I'm a minority, and I don't make excuses. I have experienced discrimination, and unless someone has been the target of discrimination, they can't really understand the feeling. It hasn't stopped me though.

We are in an environment where social media is ubiquitous, it is in nearly every global household spanning young, old, rich and poor. This bloodless revolution has changed the way we read the news, get our mail, talk to our friends, network, decide our dining preference, and purchase everything from toilet paper to rare automobiles. We do it all online. And it happens in milliseconds.

At last count, more than 60 million worldwide bloggers are talking about everything from wigs, wine, wedding bling and grandma’s recipes. According to Technorati, nearly 100K new blogs are created each day. Consumer generated media is so powerful, it helped elect the most unlikely of candidates, President Barack Obama, against nearly impossible odds.

On the flip side, traditional media as we know it, is taking it’s last gasping breaths. Many reporters we’ve relied on for decades are going the way of the dinosaurs; by virtue of reduced space for editorial; daily layoffs; and the rise of the proletariat blogger.

The ascendency of the blogger and the ubiquity of social media have transformed the the very definition of influencer. Like it or not, luddites beware.

I'm sure it's very challenging as a journalist who has been the primary influencer for decades to realize that they no longer hold the keys to the kingdom. Parker's influence has been stripped away, not because of systematic conspiracy by the wine industry, but by a mass of humanity who no longer accepts that there is only one flavor profile (big fruit anyone) that is acceptable.

Parker and can either embrace the citizen journalist or be left behind at his own peril.
