Last week, in the wake of the Sam Hoyt scandal, the media, including the folks at WBEN, attacked Joe Illuzzi, and by elaborating on how bad blogs are… that they are unaccountable, unregulated, unprofessional etc. etc. Well, it turns out that the “accountable,” “regulated,” and “professional” Buffalo News reported a false internet rumour about Nicole Kidman and her alleged campaign to save Studio Arena Theatre as legitmate front page news. I heard WBEN report on the same fake story as well.
