Where Did All the Good Journalism Go?

When seeking the best news of 2007, maybe we should look to ourselves, rather than the mainstream media sources writing the news to begin with. It's good news, bad news, old news time again, that time of the year when such hoary and perennial journalistic traditions as year-end retrospectives, 'Best of,' 'Worst of,' and 'Top Ten' lists and 'Person of the Year' selections all proliferate.
Unfortunately, with all the bad news, phony news, faux news and Fox News out there, it's all too easy to create a Top Ten Worst Journalism list-maybe even a Top Thousand! But in the spirit of the season, let's try to be a bit more positive, shall we? In this age of media scams and scandals, of paid opinion and information warfare, of partisan power plays and the corrupt nexus of Big Media and Big Politics, how and where can we find quality news and information we can trust?
