...the way cable news is now using Blogs to air editorialisations and speculations. Part of what makes Blogs unique is that they are somewhat reckless, yet when for every other segment CNN does blog reports is that not just lazy journalism on CNN's part? Is reporting what Blogs are saying "news," or just bad journalism?

All the news channels were doing that last night. . . and I agree, it is extremely lazy journalism.

They need something to fill all that empty space of theirs.

I don't know which is worse, trolling the blogs for analysis or having a mid-to-low level operative from both sides screaming their talking points at each other.
