Somewhere among the more than 15,000 newspaper, magazine, television and radio journalists roaming the Democratic National Convention this week in Boston will be more than 30 people without a notebook, an editor or a deadline.

PS: If you read the article about half-way down is mention of our own Dr. John Grohol and Psych Central! :)
