I understood the subtle point your making, but what struck me was that it is roughly the heuristic I use to choose between whether to visit CNN.com or DemocracyNow.org on any particular day. And yes I prefer hearing what Chomsky has to say rather than Kimmie.

I would prefer it too. But it wouldn't automatically validate the medium he's using - and I wouldn't unquestioningly take his words as well. I would take them as the opinions of a smart person.
