Reliability please

We talked about how wikis work, because of the opposing viewpoints. But I still question just how reliable blogs as a news source can really be. I know the big media can be unreliable at times too, but I feel that you can stumble upon so many biased blogs all over the web. There's not really much you can do about wrong information on the web, because people can write what they want. But when people begin to treat that as legitimate news, there can be many problems. Web blogs are definitely a good resource to tap into, but we cannot treat it all as legitimate news.

peace,
Martin
