Mainstream media is steadily assaulted with various accusations: from credibility issues, journalistic ethics, to foul practices, transparent biases and envelope journalism. It has come to a point that certain pundits have proposed the abolition of traditional media to give credence to blogging wave.
Challenge Number 07: Is traditional media still relevant in a blogging world? Conversely: Like Wikipedia, is blogging light years away from being acceptable means for credible journalism? Are there means to regain the glory of old journalism? What are the alternatives and where do you think is the proper place of blogging in the grand scheme of media consumption in the 21st century?
