"For the mainstream media, I think there ought to be general standards of newsworthiness. And they basically are, how important is what happened? And how important is the person it happened to? And I think David Hasselhoff, although 'Baywatch' got exported to 160 countries, is exactly the kind of C-list celebrity that we really have to raise questions about."

--Mark Jurkowitz, associate director of Project for Excellence in Journalism, on CNN's "Reliable Sources."
