Keep in mind that newspapers, in their infancy, weren't known for accuracy or truthfulness (not even by today's standards).
It took many decades for their owners to (1) realize how important trust is, and (2) to build up that trust over time, through accuracy and professionalism.
TV has been the same way, and yet hasn't even gotten there yet (especially local-level broadcasts). Blogs & internet news sites (even those associated with print newspapers) have barely been born, relatively speaking.
It might take years, but readers will eventually weed out the ones known for making these kinds of mistakes and stick to the more accurate ones (at least I hope so).
