The majority of bloggers are self-serving hacks more interested in feeding their egos and bank accounts than making sure their "writing" is factual.

I stopped right there....well, I had to - that was the end of the post - lol

But anyways....the majority of "journalists" I label the same too, gone are the days of objective reporting....I more "trust" a blogger for information nowadays than a reporter (and I trust no one these days for th most part)....as in this case, I'd trust the blogger expressing her opinion that something tasted too salty for her palate than a journalist getting paid not to upset paying advertisers - as in this restaurateur

I never said lamestream media is honest. As a matter of fact, I believe they are as bad.

Trust nobody and you'll never be disappointed.

I more "trust" a blogger for information

Even if it blogs about giant squids eating Japan?

Nobody is checking, even for spelling.. so why the trust?
