Another point-of-view in the ongoing newspapers verses blogs as a source of trustworthy information debate:
If online news services want to match the quality and depth of their print counterparts, they will need to hire, quite possibly, the very journalists working for the aforementioned newspapers.
If online viewers want the level of news and opinion that print reporters generate, the Internet news services will hire reporters, defraying the cost out of their online advertising revenues, which will be greater for an Internet news service that attracts additional viewers by offering them richer, newspaper-type fare. Indeed, long after newspapers like the New York Times and the Washington Post have ceased print publication, their Web sites may be among the leading Internet news services.
