1. Why are amateur blogs said to be less credible than established news
services?

? You can try but your stereotype of something as large as the
blogosphere is IMO, futile.

Okay, I'll make it little more simple for you: Tell me about the
editing and fact-checking standards of a blog compared to public media.

I already gave up on trying to pound some sense into Witless, but since you've
taken up the challenge, please note one phrase in my original question:
amateur blogs. Scottie immediately leaped from my limiting phrase to "the
blogosphere". They are not equivalent.
