Almost every day I read various sports blogs, purely for entertainment. Very few of these sights claim to have real journalistic values, but for some reason, major media outlets like ESPN have a big problem with sports bloggers. They question the importance and reliability, which I think is ridiculous. Blogging can be important and provide great discussion at times, but for the most part, I think it is there for entertainment. Especially in sports. It will be interesting to see where this issue goes in the future, especially as a few mainstream reporters have actually began to embrace blogging.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7593271204027357359-3998231530939036791?l=sfernando05.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sfernando05.blogspot.com/feeds/3998231530939036791/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7593271204027357359&amp;postID=3998231530939036791' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7593271204027357359/posts/default/3998231530939036791'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7593271204027357359/posts/default/3998231530939036791'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sfernando05.blogspot.com/2008/01/blogging-vs-journalism.html' title='Blogging vs. Journalism'/><author><name>Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01529543806733358805</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='15713329121437840188'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
