Journalists and Blogging

An interesting article that shows reading blogs is more popular with journalists than the public "Interestingly it is the journalists—not their readers—that are turning to blogs in record numbers. While the Euro RSCG Magnet study shows that more than half (51%) of journalists use Weblogs regularly—with 28% relying on them for day-to-day reporting, a recent study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project Survey showed that just 11% of the U.S. population reads blogs". I like this " the majority of journalists are using blogs to do their work, despite the fact that only 1% believe blogs are credible" I guess before they read blogs their stories were simply made up!
