Nicholas_C was a minute late so I'll respond to yours. Good timing! With that example in mind, imagine there being no trusted force for everyone, because every other source could be dismissed as "Conservative brain-washing" or "Anarchist propaganda." We barely trust our governments and our bosses' bosses. Not all of us live where we can trust our news. I know a lot of us on HN are business- and libertarian-minded, but we should recognize that places on the web like Wikipedia are special, and for all of us.

Isn't this the premise of Conservapedia. It doesn't claim to be biased, but to be free of the hegemonic liberal bias of Wikipedia (and academia, business, most forms of religion, etc). There is no trusted source for everyone. Anyone with a bias they can't get into Wikipedia is free to spread FUD on the egregious nature of its biases and misinformation.
