What I think...
In my opinion, main stream journalism is where one should go for the unbaised and true account of what might have happened. I feel that because facts are checked and checked again in organizations such as CNN, ABC, BBC, etc, the reporters have less of a chance of mispresenting a story.

Yes, it is true that if an orginization is more democratic then republican or more declined towards one belief in anything, the stories might have somewhat of a slanted view but it is important to remember that the same is present in online journalism. In blogging, anytone can write what they think or feel, regardless of what the facts might be.

Additionally, in main stream journalism, these organizations hire experienced reporters who have studied journalism and are passionate about it.

In conclusion, I feel that MSM is the way to go for facts but for readers looking for opinions, blogging is available and here to stay.
