[edit] NPOV

Wow, this article has some of the most slanted statements I've ever seen on Wikipedia.

  • "In the UK where there is greater national coverage, watchdog journalism is very effective and consumers' rights are upheld both by radio, television and most national newspapers." VERY pro-UK.
  • "In recent history, a notable example of watchdog journalism was the exposure of Dan Rather's investigative segment which cast George W. Bush's military record in an unfavorable light. The segment was based on the Killian documents, which blogger journalists exposed as being insufficiently verifiable as authentic." So blogger journalists "exposed" these documents. That's POV, weasel words, and if we could find a source, would most likely be unreliable, unless the bloggers were affiliated with an actual media source Jedibob5 (talk) 21:42, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
