The article has nothing new to say, at all. The best thing about blogs, imo, is that they allow anyone to have a voice if they want to. The worst thing about blogs, imo, is that they allow anyone to have a voice if they want to. I don't think the CNN piece picks up on this, that the reason blogs lack credibility is because, unlike mainstream media, anyone can do it. Hence, not all blogs are created equal. Not all are entirely truthful or to be believed. The only thing one has to go on, the only currency worth anything, is reputation. A classic concept but one overlooked by the CNN article.
