Why the news agencies are among the bloggers???

I thought blogging was the domain of citizen journalists putting their personal thoughts on the net so they can report to the world what the main press is not telling !!!
 
Now there seems to be a new trend:  the big press is infiltrating the domain of the bloggers, and there are big reporters of the big medias blogging also...  Some even using aka names...
 
The other day, I was searching posts on a specific country, expecting to read what citizens of that country were writting on... I was amazed to see the search from Atom brought up several news agencies that have posted news on that country, before I could read posts from private "bloggers". And articles from those news agencies were ranking very high ahead of  the sites of the real bloggers.
 
I think we bloggers should start raising our voices against this practice of blog search engines including news agencies and news reporters among the bloggers.  News agencies are not bloggers; they are media people posing as bloggers.
 
Please you real  bloggers out there  tell me I am right, and that We bloggers should be really concerned.  I hope the blog search engines will take note and are listening

Some said the jury were exclusively applying the laws of self-defense, as though justice were not also a combination of fairness, morality and good. I bet those women of that jury that got George Zimmerman free, without even a slap on the wrist, went to church thereafter. They should and must be asking themselves: What Jesus would have done? A nation or a country that cannot provide justice to its citizens would not enjoy peace, like Cain after he killed his brother Abel (Genesis 4:8) Carl Gilbert

Tandis qu’Israël continue ses ravages à Gaza, les médias enflamment la crise (3 langues)

                                                                                       Par Amy Goodman de Democracy Now Traduit de l'anglais Fran ç ais Alors qu'Israël intensifie sa réponse brutale à l'attaque brutale menée par l'organisation Hamas le 7 octobre, il est important d'entendre les voix de ceux qui se trouvent sur la ligne de feu, des deux côtés du conflit. Les principaux médias américains nous offrent constamment les voix des Israéliens qui ont subi les actes de violence du Hamas. J'aimerais que les médias couvrent également de cette manière la douleur dont souffre la population civile de Palestine, car nous entendons rarement sa voix. Écouter le récit des victimes dans leur propre voix est la première étape pour faire tomber les barrières et cultiver une c...
