I think it's starting to happen.

I was watching CNN this morning and they did a brief spot promoting one of their twitter feeds. Newspapers are using them too.

When the media and entertainment people start using it, I think more mainstreamers will follow.

But MSM seldom get it right. Remember the LA Times wikitorial? Or Wired's Second Life bureau? When's the last time you listened to a podcast produced by your local newspaper, or used the NYT's Blogrunner service? The media is desperate to "get" the Internet, but many times they simply end up jumping on the latest bandwagon, which fades after a year or two.
