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.


How do you draw a line between an amateur blog and a non-amateur
blog?


Good question. How do you know?


�I make a subjective assessment upon the quality of their posts and
the validity of their references.


That doesn't answer the original question.


You appear to do it based upon their ideology.


No, I don't. It's just another attempt by you to avoid answering a
very simple question.
