Daily Show on media and Weblogs; 'It's evolve -- or die'
The Daily Show ran an entertaining segment last week on how TV broadcasts are increasing reading from blogs on air.
John Stewart: "By reading the blogs on TV, the 24-hour-news networks have combined the visual pizzaze of a text file with the deep insight of a 90-second cable segment....
"A good blog can be a valuable news resource, but it doesn't really make for good television. Why the rush by networks to put them on the air?"
Rob Corddry: "Terror. Pure undiluted fear of their own extinction. The lumbering TV dinosaurs have spotted a free mammal called blog running around, and in this jungle, it's evolve -- or die."
Crooks and Liars has posted the full clip here.
