No More Sacrifices at Schulman's Alter

So Sweden's premiere shock-jock Alex Schulman is closing down his blog (SvD, DN). It was very interesting to read his reasons for this, namely, that the blogg had taken on a life of its own and was no longer showing a side of Alex Schulman that he was comfortable with.

His blogg was a bit like a modern day collosseum, with a bloodthirsty audience always screaming for the next celebrity to be sacrificed in the arena of popular entertainment. And Schulman has always been all too happy to provide this...until now.

If he realy feels that things went too far then I actually think it's a brave thing to stand up and say this and shows the man may actually have some integrity after all.

Of course it could be a smoke screen and the real reason he is quitting now is because if he pisses off many more people he'll never work again in the business.
