For instance, just because this site is a ‘blog’, our editorial team are all professional journalists who have years of experience writing for leading Web and paper-based publications (magazines and newspapers). Plus, we still get the privileged access to information and product review samples which ‘journalists’ get. I think you’re being very detrimental to bloggers worldwide by suggesting they're not ‘professional journalists’. Content has traditionally been free online, even from the big publishers, but News Corp is hoping to change that. Soon, not all content will be free online. In addition, don’t forget that people are wanting information real-time, which is just one (there are lots) of reasons print media is dying.
