I get the impression now that the mainstream media is becoming more like a blog.

"now" becoming more like a blog? when wasn't it that way? Pack
journalism has been around for a very long time, while true
investigative journalism has always been rare in the semiofficial
media. It's quite possible that the most famous case of investigative
journalism (Woodward & Bernstein on Watergate) was more a result of
infighting within the Nixon administration than due to Woodstein's
efforts.
