A new study found that while editors and readers agree on what makes print journalism credible, they disagree on the online sector.
Seventy percent of editors said everyone should disclose their name before commenting on stories to support trustworthy journalism, but 55 percent of readers want to stay anonymous.
At the same time, 58 percent of editors said allowing journalists to post their opinions online would harm journalism, but only 36 percent of the public agreed.
If you ask me, non-anonymous comments would contribute to reader trust in online journalism, and maybe then blogs would be considered real news.

Thats the problem, people don't have the balls to make most of the comments they make online, they feel safe behind their monitor.
