Sorry to be picky, but… I think your explanation of my point more accurately defines points that one or two commenters on my post are making, but not what I’m trying to say.

As far as I know, Boing Boing doesn’t claim to be journalism, and I wouldn’t say it is. My point is that simply by being popular it edges closer towards “publishing” (which is different from “journalism”) which entails certain responsibilities for accuracy.
