"What Mr. Engberg is also conveniently missing is that the bloggers have no similar responsibility or moral requirement for accuracy as the MSM."

Got that guys? You people have no moral obligation to tell the truth! Only institutions do, like MSM and government.

... the worst news coverage of an election in history was likely performed by America’s bloggers....

To THEM is this absolute truth. It is them coming to the realization that they no longer have a monopoly on information and now they must go through the five steps of grief. Most of them are stuck in denial and anger.

We dispel one more error in our detractors mantra. That is, we have no editors.

I’m sure that all of the bloggers in America will be thrilled to know that they are being likened to fleas, mites, and ticks.

But we're fleas, mites, and ticks in pajamas!

What Mr. Engberg is also conveniently missing is that the bloggers have no similar responsibility or moral requirement for accuracy as the MSM. A web log is inherently somebody’s opinion. I would fervently suggest that the overwhelming majority--a number likely approaching 99%--of the Internet surfers understand this fact significantly more than the gullible masses that on a daily basis turn on any of the news hours presented by the MSM. In fact, it is indeed the MSM that has such a responsibility to be accurate for exactly this reason--the public blindly accepts everything they report as the gospel truth. By contrast, the folks who visit blogs are quite aware of the editorial nature that is inherent in this medium, and, as a result, take much of what they read with a grain of salt. <

Wow, this guy gets it.

Now, before delving any further into this ranting, you might be interested in knowing who the source of this drivel is.

That's where I stopped reading.

The old MSM is dying. It was a self inflicted wound. Good riddance.

Now, to a certain extent, this almost rises to the level of braggadocio inasmuch as when the dinosaurs died off, at least they continued to be useful by becoming fossil fuel.

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!

Another good line would have been: "Engberg should be controlled by the EPA for the gaseous emissions coming from his mouth!

Everybody needs to realize the ongoing plan is to prove the internet/bloggers are not a credible source for information.

This is being done for Hillary's benefit. She must be able to control the media flow when she runs for president. Without that, she will be exposed for who she really is and that will doom her candidacy.

The first attempt to do this was the recent blogs with all the election conspiracy theories. These blogs caused ABC and others to start questioning the election itself (or that was their excuse). Then .. when the theories started being debunked - IT WAS THOSE IDIOT BLOGGERS WHO DID THIS.

My theory is that these bloggers were only in business as a vehicle to launch the conspiracy theories (meaning they were liberal bloggers) .. which then allowed the rest of the liberal, complicit media to follow through with exultations of disgust for the non-credible information from the internet.

Interesting huh ..??

Undambelievable! I wonder what planet this turkey finally made his home on?

On the night of Rather's program document release, I sat raptly on the computer, well into the wee hours watching the CBS slimeball get his hand caught in the cookie jar by the bloggers who had the expertise to catch the MS New Roman font transposition.

It was the most fascinating night I could have imagined. The professionalism of the bloggers on top of that story are deserving of the Medal Of Freedom, IMHO.

"Well Done", mates! You put the spikes in the wretched CBS coffin -- and none too soon. You have my respect, admiration and heartfelt thanks for your service to our Republic.

Mr Shepard writes a good read. He slammed the fingers of the MSM in the door pretty hard.

They are not going to stop the bloggers. Intelligent people will always look for alternate sources of news..now that there is some. I am SICK of being spoon feed by these Neanderthals and I won't take it anymore! Now that's progressive for ya.

"Most of them are stuck in denial and anger."

I'm betting that they will stay at "denial and anger" -- right up to the day they have to give up their license because they no longer have enough viewers to attract any revenue.
