Adam Curry’s “The Big Lie” provides more evidence that the webloggers are doing a better job than Big Media of covering breaking news and providing in-depth analysis. Curry’s coverage of and reflection on the assassination of Dutch political candidate Pim Fortuyn is orders of magnitude better, more accurate, and more fair than anything on Fortuyn that has appeared in the mainstream media.

The common wisdom is that only Big Media can undertake the research necessary to report complex, difficult stories. Curry proves this to be unquestionably false in the extreme.
