ABC - Always Been Credible?

Nightline did this great show on Tuesday re. the rising influence of bloggers. It's just a bit bizarre to hear that my little corner of the blogosphere is somehow part of a larger whole that's reshaping the worlds of journalism, activism, policy, socializing, and so much more. But what was with the sanctimonious sign-off on credibility? No doubt bloggers have to earn their stripes, but (forgive my cynicism) isn't it just a bit disingenuous for a major network to preach about credibility? Network news has been losing audience share for years because they exchanged old fashioned journalism (just the facts, maam) for editorializing long ago.
