I think his assumptions are flawed.  He assumes that traditional media
is higher quality journalism than good blogging, that it must be more
expensive than good blogging, and that people would want to read it over
good blogging.

I think good blogs (one of which is now a media empire almost -
TechCrunch) have put such ideas to rest for open-minded people.
