Most papers will manage, based on the crap they write i'm pretty sure the journalists aren't paid much.

As for blogs, who the hell gets news from them? 90% of them are full with pointless rubbish unless it's a company (or someone from one) running it giving information about said company's products/services - but then that's not exactly news
