“What independent bloggers don’t have is the resources or, in most cases, the skills to do the heavy journalistic lifting that the big American outlets still do better than anyone, and will continue to do for a very long time.”
What a crock of shit! MSM relies on a few, not very unbiased, sources such as AP and Reuters. Google up some topic under news and you see word-for-word the same story. Where they actually have field reporters they usually rely on pools or rebroadcast another networks stuff with permission. They take their cues from each other ignoring the same stories while flocking to others based on their liberal bias.
What will keep blogging alive is their continued insistence that they are the source of all truth while they steer ever further to the left.
MSM, Liberals, Democrats, all whistling as they walk past the graveyard!
Resources? Resources? Have you ever noticed that when the MSM need “experts” on any given topic, the “experts” almost always sail in with a pronounced list to port?
And almost always the same “experts,” time after time.
“Round up all the usual suspects.”
Resources?
