I'm not sure I see the connection there.
To me, as a journalist, access to information is a way to avoid opinion journalism or journalism that goes “he said, he said”, and you try to work out something in between. When you call it “blogger journalism”, I assume you mean opinion journalism, that sort of thing.
To me, access to information is an answer to this. We talk about all the misinformation in blogs out there and trying to persuade people one way or another from using misinformation. Access to information is an answer to that problem. Giving data that has been provided by governments and vetted gives a hard, factual basis to investigative journalism.
That's why I have used the act for my whole career, because I think it's a more reliable, less challengeable source of information for investigative stories.
I'm not sure that answers your question.
