Winner, stupidest phrase of the week: 'internet blog'

It's not just the headline writer's fault; the phrase appears in the text of the story itself:
LAPD starts internet blog
...

"I see the blog, which is first and foremost a department blog, as an opportunity to communicate with the public and educate them about what we are doing at the LAPD," Bratton said Thursday.

"But I also see it as an opportunity for me to respond to those issues where I feel the department is being misrepresented," the chief added.
Yeah, those are two totally different things -- propaganda and spin. I see the difference too.
