mac, who would have broken the Toronto Police profiling business a few years ago? Who could devote the resources, and withstand possible lawsuits, other than The Star? 

One example....but I don't think you are so interested.]]>

Believe my, my heart bleads rivers for corp. owned media, print or otherwise.  If anyone can show me hard hitting reporting being done these days by any paper in North America that isn't toally biased or panders to the audience or editorial review, please enlighten me.  The only half decent news reporting seems to come from the BBC or Sky news these days.  By all means, if you wish to hold your grip on that environmentally wasteful printed paper, be my guest.]]>

Newspapers do relatively little original reporting relative to their overall volume - it's mostly rehash from global news services. As for DiManno's comments, I have three words: Pot. Kettle. Black.

What is happening with increasing frequency is that a story is "broken" and sustained among the blogs, and later picked up and given wide circulation by conventional massmedia. ]]>

That's rather cynical mac. As much as I like blogs (and what I said above) if traditional print papers go down, who will do all that original reporting? Blogs can cover it here and there -- but reporters need to make money, and the revenue model of the blogosphere/online media just ain't there yet.]]>

I for one am so very happy to see print media dying, it can't happen fast enough.  You never know who is editing their "jouralistic integrety" to suit some corporate payout.  Good on the general public to research and seek out their own interests instead of having some blowhard tell us all how we should think.]]>

Not all blogs are created the same. As lucas says, the one you want to refute is the worst of the bunch. This blog is generally fairly good, funny, but not mean and snarky. Balance of some reporting at times, some comment at times. 

It would do you well to not put yourself in the same class as "dimano watch" junk. 

That said, the Globe and Mail is mostly comment and writing about the news, rather than reporting the news, so there you go. The Globe is a printed blog. ]]>

@montrealshorts:

Do you really think we whine too much? While I do agree that there's a fair amount, I like to think that we also do a great amount of excellent, non-whining reporting as well (touting the likes of local music, fashion, arts, film, and food on a daily basis)!

It just so happens that the most viewed and commented articles tend to be the ones readers can contribute their own whinge to. If newspapers accepted reader comments (outside of their brief letters to the editor pages), chance are they'd be just as whine-ridden.]]>

I agree with montrealshorts, especially regarding the blog you want to refute Rosie. And you have to admit that there isn't a lot of original, hard news reporting coming out of the blogosphere. Disagree with the "graceless" part, though.]]>

I love the Star's "Better to just hold it at TTC pit stops" article on disgusting TTC public washrooms.
