French are Annoyed about disinformation smear campaign.
It is true that a lot of rumors, allegations and theories that are reported in the media are then repeated as fact over and over on blogs, editiorials, and discussions. It can change non-verfied, un-fact checked stories into Gospel in less than 48 hours in the Blogosphere. It is a neat phenomenon that Blogs played a large role in creating. Blogs are making what would have been minor side stories into major stories, this gets back to the major news media and then that story that would have dissapeared makes the National News. It's kind of cool, and we bloggers are responsible.
