I can see why the MSM is uncomfortable with blogs. A competing wordlview that was always there but is now widely accessible upsets their former monopoly on information.

Longer memories don't help their cause (or their Capital 'C' Causes) either.

Did Bush oversell the war with intelligence made out of whole cloth and drag uninformed legislators into a war?

Bryan Preston at Tech Central Station does something that the MSM doesn't seem to do and/or hopes that us commoners won't do. He simply Googles "Clinton Iraq 1998".

Ever wonder why the MSM bigs freak out at the term "Fair and Balanced"? Sure, they hate Fox News, but it also may be that to those used to determining what is reported, balanced just isn't fair.
