This article of Kevin Anderson is a perfect view of what is today the relationship from blogs and online media. Just some quotes:

Blogging isn’t journalism on the cheap, as some critics have suggested — it’s a natural extension of the core mission of journalism: helping foster a vigorous public dialogue.

But blogging is not a publishing strategy, it’s a community strategy.

The art of blogging is about building a community and coaxing people out from behind their keyboards

Blogging allows us to get out from behind our bylines and connect with people. Marketers call it ‘building our brand,’ but I think it’s about building relationships.

From a desk in London, I’m part of a global newsgathering network, not the BBC, not The Guardian, but the internet.
