Another hit-job on blogs

David Neiwert:

But I also noticed this line:

"Unlike traditional, mainstream media, blogs often adopt a specific point of view. Critics complain they can contain unchecked facts, are poorly edited and use unreliable sources."

And this distinguishes them from the mainstream press exactly ... how?

Athenae:

What critics? We do not know. The reporter doesn't tell us. Apparently it's one of those things, like "the sky is blue" and "Democrats are weak on national security" that is so obvious we don't need to cite a source of any kind to just blurt it out there and attribute it to "critics." And all blogs, apparently, are subject to all these complaints. Equally. At once.
