Blodget as a financial reporter

Wired magazine offers an interesting look at Henry Blodget, a former analyst, hated by many, who has now switched careers to become a financial reporter, writing about the companies he used to cover.
First, he wrote for Slate, then his own blog, Internet Outsider, and now for a new site called Silicon Alley Insider. Will his career makeover garner him respect once again?
From the story:
Alley Insider is one of many tech business blogs that feed news, earnings info, and rumors to investors and corporate insiders. But Alley Insider has one thing that others don't. Blodget. He's smart, he's skeptical, and he's got the kind of self-assured voice that sells well in the blogosphere. As the market sinks, his opinions are even more in demand, though he's still hated by a large portion of his prospective audience.
