Bloggers bring down mainstream media again
Eason Jordan, CNN New Chief, has accused U.S. military of intentionally killing journalists. Apparently without evidence. And this story went unnoticed (or ignored) by the mainstream media. That is until bloggers talked about it enough.
While, I don’t think bloggers will ever take the place of the mainstream media, it’s nice that there is finally a mechanism to introduce accountability into an institution that has had no check for a long time. It’s the start of another revolutionary change in society introduced by the internet.
