WSJ Takes Issue With Blogs

I think blogs are great. The mainstream media has an issue with blogs because blogs often criticise the MSM and offer a different point of view. But this is a good thing. Often journalists get too close to their sources, they feel flattered to be taken into the confidence of presidents and prime ministers, and lose their critical faculties and end up as propaganda machines for said politicians. One only has to witness how uncritical the MSM were in the run up to Iraq. If the fourth estate had done their bit and analysed the situation critically, perhaps Iraq wouldn't have been embarked on and thousands of lives saved. Bloggers are outside this goldfish bowl and reflect ordinary life as most of us live it and hence offer a valuable corrective to the MSM.

i dont like a particular blog...i like all blogs with some use ful and interestin topics
