I really liked reading it, just have one question – Why do you compare between reporters and such, people who are PAID for their work and news-getting (And also have many more resources than the average poster/blogger), and None-paid people who just write their opinions on the web..?

It’s not a new thing, many bloggers have been hired by major news companies just because they were that good.
I think thats the way it should work – If this is your job, and you actually get paid for it then it’s totally fair to expect the best results from you.

Just a little thought, and again – good post!
