There is a reason why blogs are popular. People can post whatever they want, whenever they want and nobody can say otherwise. The media is getting beat to the punch on news and information by bloggers everywhere. So what is media trying to do? They are trying to put up sites that imitate blogs or even just plain blogs. The difference is they people on the blog can't curse, be dirty, or say anything that might affend. In short they are regulated by the company that pays their salary. It never works and sites like OfficePirates try to be "off the wall" but they are just plain boring compared to Ernie's House of Whoopass. The media and corporate America are in trouble and are losing eyeballs to their old bored eyeballs with a blogger account.
