I'm still not sure I believe it. I know some people who offer cross-links to 30-40-50 media sites
and whoe blogs have less inherent interest than mine.

Ben, you've been asking this question since the first day you started your blog: "How can I gain some mass distribution and cross-linking for this blog?"
If you want to get your blog listed on a big website like Jerusalem Post or Australian, etc., you have to develop a relationship with the person or persons that are in charge of running them, and then ask that person to list your blog on their website. There is no magic bullet that will get you instantly listed on dozens of big websites. The bloggers that you see crosslinked on other websites had to work hard to get those links, sometimes for many months or years, establishing a reputation and trustworthiness before other websites crosslinked to them. There's no other way to do it, you just have to be patient and people will start linking to you without you even asking.
