Is the MSM becoming more like the blogosphere?

This is a direct quote from a news.com.au article:

Some meddling US boffins have found that it may be possible to implant frickin’ lasers in sharks’ heads.

This despite the story being about stimulating living cells – “unspecified mammal cells” at that, rather than cells from a large cartilaginous fish – to produce laser light, and no actual implantation of anything going on. The thing is though, I’d have probably said much the same thing and used a title similar to “Sharks with frickin’ laser beams? Oh yes.” Although I probably would not have misspelled ‘fucking’.

Hmmm, unspecified mammal cells, eh? I wonder…..

And who’s to say they’re not further along with this than anyone imagines?
