blogs rule
I think that blogs are underminimg the traditional media bigtime. By publishing instant well reasoned analysis or deconstructions of NY Times "articles" for example, bloggers are the 21st century vanguard of the truly free press.
It must be noted that unlike, say Lindy, the rational reader must exercize caution and be discerning in accepting stuff on the net. Just as folks shoulda been with the NYT.
Some interesting blogs...

Little Green Footballs (no, not the Donks kind)
