The    earliest    blogs    tended    to    be    personal    accounts    of    daily    events.    Very    soon,    however,    many    types    emerged    including    critical    news    commentaries,    often    well-informed    and    expressed.    With    many    millions    of    bloggers    now    writing    on    almost    every    subject    each    day,    the    traditional    media    cannot    afford    to    ignore    them    or    treat    them    with    disrespect.  Their    ubiquity    means    they    have    become    increasingly  ,    as    can    be    seen    in    the    number    of    'official'    news    stories    that    are    or    called    into    question    by    bloggers,    and    also    the    numerous    stories    •    initiated    through    blogs.    Most    large    media    organisaiions    have    now    incorporated    some    form    of    blogging    into    their    news    services,    but    independent    bloggers    still    have    a    freedom    unavailable    to    mainstream    journalists.    They    bypass    editors    and    publishers,    who    tend    to    distort    stories.    The    material    on    blogs    is    raw,    unmodified  by    editors,    and    often    harsh    and    direct    in    its    criticism    of    the    way    news    is    reported    by    the    traditional    media.    Thus,    bloggers    act    as    a    kind    of    media    watchdog,    able    to    check    facts    and    verify    or,    alternatively,    information    in    a    way    that    mainstream    journalists    are    often    unable    to.
