The problem isn't that Comic-Con isn't a pop culture event, it's that the people who blog about it are doing so on gaming and comic and entertainment blogs. People into this stuff don't consider the Post-Gazette their online forum. The idea that people look to the PG to satisfy all of their curiosities is laughable, but it's a mentality that the PG and many newspapers still hold dear. The PG needs to focus on topics that they own, not slapping their brand on any national or international story that suits their whim.
