Watchdogs. Honest. Gatekeepers. Objective. We have a lot of different words to describe journalist, but some how “trustworthy” never seems to be one of them.

One of the (great?) things that internet journalism has created is the ability for people to “comment” on the news. Have you ever been to a CNN.com article and skimmed through the story just to get to the comments? I have. It can be infuriating and funny at the same time. The “Comment” section has […]
