 There's a fundamental difference between a blogger and a reporter
-- the former is without editorial controls placed on what they
choose to write, nor are they subject to ethical or moral standards,

Actually, one of America's greatest investigative journalists and commentators, Isadore Stone, unable to get steady employment at traditional publication, started his own one-man weekly in 1952,

In 1964, Stone was the only journalist to challenge the Johnson Administration's account of the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which was used to increase America's presence in the Vietnam War (gee, this is starting to sound familiar...).
