Yeah, this needs to be reiterated at least like 10 times by at least 2 different American sources, before this can be taken as anything more than wishful thinking.

Also, when you think about it, what the internet did to journalistic integrity is pretty despicable. These days, anybody with a blog and some free time is a journalist and opinion pieces are a plenty. The TV reporters also talk about only the most shocking/controversial stories because watching the news on TV has become closer to a form of entertainment than journalism, since people can just fire up Yahoo and scan the most important headlines in a matter of seconds.
