He should know

Don Hewitt is the creator of the “Sixty Minutes.” He “stepped down” as its executive producer in June of this year. Asked about bloggers during a panel discussion at the Kennedy School, televised by C-SPAN, Hewitt responded that bloggers are “great.” He described them as “our new fact-checkers,” adding that they will force the networks to be more acccurate in their reporting.
