Blogging
Blogging, even though some people don't agree, has really been one of the several advancements in the journalism world. After reading this article by Jack Loechner I have found that blogging is very speedy, and is readily available. Unlike other news media, blogging has its advantages, especially with commenting. You can't comment on tv, radio, or even newspapers immediately. Blogging will be around as long as the internet around, which just gives more people opportunities to write on what they feel, and also to comment on the world around them. I really like the quote at the end of the article by Jerry Johnson, head of strategic planing at Brodeur, that says "...reporters are still creating their stories by going out and developing their own ideas and talking to their sources… The blogosphere's tail is not wagging the media body - at least not yet."

I agree with the statement that blogging will be around as long as the internet is around. If someone will host a place to vent, people will vent. The speed also plays a factor. Like Aaron said, you cant comment on the TV, in the newspaper and on the radio immediately. The internet is a great place to hold this discussion. It is out of the way for people that don't want to read it but it is accessible enough for people to get involved in the discussion
