What is bullshit?

Slate has a cute review on Defining Bullshit – A philosophy professor says it’s a process, not a product. By Timothy Noah (Wednesday, March 2, 2005). The review essay concludes that bullshit is a lie (or lying), but a disregard for the truth – the bullshitter doesn’t really care what is true – they just want to spout and be heard. Sounds like a lot of blogs to me.
