SNIP..."And when the blogging political pioneer Howard Dean addressed the audience, he added a large helping of media mistrust to the breakfast on hand.

"If I were you, I wouldn't be insulted if someone said you weren't a real journalist," he said, because news has increasingly become entertainment, not information.

And he believes the traditional media will increasingly become irrelevant. "The net will become so ubiquitous over the next 25 years, that you will largely be able to bypass traditional media," he said...."

Good article about the bloggers.

theory...the net will surpass the traditional media in a few years...as more and more people discover how it's not real news anymore..just an extention of the reichwing propoganda machine.
