But now bloggers must work <em>with</em> journalists? Big Media organs are all for the integrity of adversial relationships until faced with one themself.

On the matter of complementarity - it seems like only those people who are not aware of blogs' role, their capabilities and content are still trying to debate whether blogs are better than msm. It's like debating what is better TV or newspapers... The answer is obvious: It depends... Also, simbiotic relationship between blogs and media is obvious to any logical person. Plus, it was already empirically documented as well. Another props to the Guardian editor - a surprisingly innovative vision for a media biz old-timer…

The best way to do that is for both media to promote and reward quality writing and to give no quarter to garbage and sleeze writers.
