Quite a well balanced article I thought. More so than I've come to expect from mainstream media.

  we need a new word for mainstream media, it's been appropriated by the mainstream media.

    I think "popular media" or "general interest news" work in this context.

      'Corporate media' perhaps?
      • Benjo 16y ago
        I think their corporate nature is incidental. Wired is a corporate media. Perez Hilton is not. This has more to do with getting technical details correct then being a corporation. So maybe "non-technical media" is the term we want?

          Popular media, in analogy to popular science, is a pretty good term.

        I don't know. As an example for a bad fit: The Economist is as corporate as you can get, but not really mainstream.
