I also think that big media got away with it for so long because they had no challengers. And with no credible dissenting views to contend with, big media had no incentive to shoot straight.

The minute a challenger with the same distribution power as big media cropped up, big media began to implode. Dan Rather is the poster boy for this phenomenon. But for the bloggers, he'd still be shovelling the same old liberal manure onto America's plate. And CNN can't get enough of the runaway bride. Hell, even the National Enquirer has moved on.
