Re: Blogs over Mainstream Media

2nd- There's still a taboo when it comes to websites. Tell a person you're from the paper and they'll talk. Tell them you're from a website, and they'll run! The papers will get calls all day with news stories and tips. We have to find our "scoops" on our own. Then there's the privacy issue: Folks as a rule have no problem being quoted in a paper, a website however is a different story.
I agree with that..... people don't like talking to a website because the internet can't truley be policed, you can go on a website and spread complete and total garbage about someone and law-enforcement can't do anything.... because anything said on the internet is protected by first ammendment rights better than a newspaper or the media whether it be television or radio.
