Mainly yahoo. FAIL: OP ED piece disguised as journalism-where's the credibility? (yahoo.com)
Yahoo has been lousy about their news service in the recent years. Many of the articles are randomly posted as 'Top Stories' when they're simply an op-ed piece or opinion. It's not an unbiased article by any means. Yahoo is just regurgitating news. -

Why is it that every time there's a natural disaster, the media fixates on the victims as looters, robbers and killers? -
Distrusting, then Trusting, the National Enquirer (latimes.com)
Apparently when a reporter from the Enquirer dishes to a network, their wild speculation becomes a legitimate story. -
NBC FAIL: NBC: Show the Olympics live, already! (sfgate.com)
Chalk it up to the Olympic spirit that the Winter Games in Vancouver are must-see TV, even though NBC seems intent on delaying, packaging, limiting and dragging the life out of them. -
Big Media FAIL: Too Much about Tiger Woods (cnn.com)
The media obsession with Tiger Woods has spiked again, this time in anticipation of his press conference, treating him like an elected official and asking why he won't take questions from the gathered press corps. Who cares?
