The weblog vs journalism match continues

Jason makes some interesting comments: are weblogs and Google combining to give the web a cerebral cortex? I'd like to think so, but Daypop and blogdex don't point that way in my opinion. It's mostly a lot of ephemera. Some of it I like, but it's not journalism, or helpful viewpoints, usually.

Meg says (sung to the tune of 'Jane Says') (my paraphrase) 'Journalists claim to be objective professionals but they're owned by just a few companies, therefore, the output is biased.' I'll buy that.
