Andrew Sullivan has an excellent piece on the effect of new media - including blogs on politics and traditional media here.

Money quote:

The downside, of course, is that sleaze is far more easily parlayed and smears more effectively deployed. But the benefit is that the new system is also porous. The competition between new and old media can help both get stories right; media bias is more openly admitted so that the reader or viewer can make up his or her own mind; new information emerges that might never have been known before. It's not perfect and it can lead to some ugly moments (besmirching someone's war-medals or possibly faking documents). But it's real and dynamic and open. It's democratic. And if you're interested in politics, it keeps you looking forward to opening your laptop each morning.
