I love to read blogs, but over the last few years there has been talk about bloggers sacrificing their integrity for pay (or products). Sometimes
it’s not disclosed whether they have paid for what they’re using or
reviewing, and in some cases, the reviews of products that they’re given
are biased towards the positive BECAUSE the items were given to them gratis.
While I try to be a tactful person (generally), if something doesn’t live up to my standards, I’ll say so. I think it's important to be polite, but honesty reigns supreme here at Better Than Yarn.
You'll know it's a review, because it will have be tagged as a "fair and balanced review", and bear the following in the header:
Product: [NAME]
Product Description: [DESC. OF MATERIALS]
Bought from: [STORE/WEBSITE]
Price/Gift: [$X]
Comments: [INSERT INSIGHTFUL REVIEW]
Enjoy!
