No, while what you want to talk about is reporting accountability, this issue is about plagarism. You seem to be saying that reporters need to be accountable for what they write, and I don't disagree. But they are supposed to actually WRITE what gets published under their name. It doesn't matter if the bloggers have no accountability, the reporter's accountability goes out the window the minute that they copy from an unaccountable source.
So yes, it is about reporting accountability - and plagarists have NONE.
