When did blogs become professional news organisations and therefore have to adhere to standards of journalistic integrity?
They're just websites, anyone can put one up and say anything they like as long as they don't break the law.
- JoeAltmaier 16y agoYes, but they don't get to be called Journalists. They are just wankers with a keyboard.
- jrockway 16y agoKind of like people commenting on social news sites?
- JoeAltmaier 16y agoSort of - but with a responsibility to be fair and accurate. And on THIS site at least, folks tend to offer links, or have pertinent experiences.
- isleyaardvark 16y agoThe important part of "journalistic integrity" is "integrity". People are certainly free act without integrity in what they say, but that doesn't mean they should.
