I&#8217;ve interviewed housing bears, loan originators, marketers and more.  The level of ability and professionalism in our industry amazes me each time I have the opportunity to talk with someone new.<\/p>\n<p>This week I had an opportunity to speak with <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ocregister.com\/mortgage\/\">Matthew Padilla<\/a>.  Matt is the Real Estate and Mortgage reporter for the <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ocregister.com\/mortgage\/\">Orange County Register<\/a>.  I was looking forward to this interview because it marked the first time I had a chance to speak with a member of the main-stream media about the mortgage and real estate markets.  I was interested in hearing him talk to what he has heard from his investigative reporting (since he does get to spend all day chasing down the stories).<\/p>\n<p>While his insight on the market is, in my opinion, spot on and valuable; the reason I wanted to share it here with you is that Matt provides interesting insight in to how blogging has impacted his reporting and coverage.  Speaking with him it became very apparent that what we do as bloggers has caused a paradigm shift in how the main-stream media thinks about, generates, and disseminates news.  Matt talked at length about how and why he uses a blog, how he designates pieces for the blog versus the paper, how other blogs drive his research, and a wide range of other topics about the interface between the new and old mediums.<\/p>\n<p>I think that all of us that blog each and every day should always remain aware that what we are doing is of extreme importance and consequence.  Each blog post, each insight, each story and personal experience shared by experts such as those I have the privilege of writing with here at Bloodhound is shaping the news that is told tomorrow.
