> A big problem is homogeniety in media. Lack of viewpoints is the least of the problems with "traditional media". Fox news and MSNBC have the same, debilitating problems as NBC, CBS and ABC. 1. They cover things poorly, little depth 2. They are beholden to their sponsorship (a great non-political example is their unwavering support of particular CFB conferences) 3. They offer opinions first instead of facts 4. They are highly selective of only certain topics (Wikipedia is really broad despite having moderation) 5. Wikipedia has 120k active editors. Networks are lucky to break 1000 employees. I think that US traditional media could do a better job, they've just catered to the LCD. There are examples of non-US media that do a solid job of maintaining NPOV and cover topics in reasonable detail without injecting overt opinions.
