Love him or hate him (he has you either way) Guido Fawkes
(aka Paul Staines) has a healthy disdain for his inclusion in the Media Guardian 100 list of influential UK media types (behind an anachronistic firewall).

Heard him just now being interviewed on the Media Guardian podcast:

“I’m always amused when mainstream media feature me and they say ‘Oh this’ll give you a good boost of traffic and you know it’s not really going to happen. I get more traffic from than Comment is Free.”

BTW, he also hints at a broadcast media stint coming up… interesting.
