"In every major conference, at every major speech, sitting at tables in restaurants, there is going to be a blogger or podcaster with microphone, PDA, Videophone, laptop or paper and pencil in hand. Listening. Taking notes. That information is going to be transmitted to and from a blog entry and placed in the hands of “the readers”." ... Umm, reporters have been doing that for decades. And bloggers are already getting arrogant just like the traditional media. They experience a glimpse of power and influence and they are drunk instantly. Many of them ramble on as if they are brilliant and experts on every topic imaginable because some people read their opinions.

Like "R" said, the information these mass media organization dispence can be important, unlike what dessert Madonna might have had. Therefore, any inaccuracies or biases that effect that information becomes important as well. CBS/Rather's actions regarding those "memos" were despictable and in some ways the cover-up continues. Same with Eason Jordan. The blogosphere really only wanted the tape of the event. What most people miss is that he made almost the exactly same comments 4 months ago (http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,1355027,00.html). If an executive from a major news organization accuses US troops of murdering journalists, he needs evidence. If he does so repeatedly without proof, that's news. The fact that his organization thinks nothing of it and it's competitors choose not to report it does not bode well for lack of bias.

Calling political bloggers the media wave of the future is like calling the Weekly World News the same. Facts bear little importance and even worse than wanting to make a name for themselves, every single one of these political blgogers are also trying to push a specific political left-wing or right-wing agenda. And I find it incredibly-sad that there are that many people sitting in front of computers 12 hours a day waiting for some rumor to come up so they can feel important and somehow their existence be validated. Blogs are great for people to be able to spout off on and brief exchanges of idea. But as far as actual credibility, I may as well go get my facts from the crazy drunk on the corner.

Nice work Mark! The problem is the media people are "stars" who get paid way too much money and they are way lazy. Katie Couric makes $12 mil come on!!! She is not curing cancer. Now they all write books & promote them on their TV shows. They should have to pay for Ad time like the rest of the animals in the barn. In fact the more I watch anything on TV it just feels like one long sales pitch. I don’t trust the MSM for news anymore either, it’s become so incestuous and everyone knows what happens when cousins marry. It’s not good for the gene pool.
