Talking Points Memo become more Old Media

The news side of Talking Points Memo, writing yesterday about whether President Barack Obama supports or opposes Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s latest effort on a public option on national healthcare uses an anonymous source.

And, today, reporting on the Progressive Change Campaign Committee's effort to push Obama on the public option, it does the same thing, while also making itself part of the story, and seeming to be in a rush to "break news."

Is TPM getting to be like "old media" as it decides that's the only way it can play inside-the-Beltway reporting? Anonymous sources, becoming part of the story, and getting in a rush to "break" stories?
