Referencing Matt Cunningham’s complaint below, I have increasingly noticed the failure of the mainstream media to give any appropriate due, instead opting to imply "you heard it from them first."
The media like to ignore the blogosphere as a "credible news source," but love to utilize it as a superb yet non-credited and faceless "information source."
A completely upstanding media entity would understand the two are one in the same…and give credit where credit is due.

Apparently this is the type of thing the LA Times’s own staff meant when they called the paper “web stupid” in their recent report to the paper’s management.

Yes, and why the California GOP is no longer giving press credentials to bloggers.
Guess the MSM guys/gals complained.
Pathetic
