Yeah. Trad media brands are *still* caught up in the stickiness thing and are unwilling to link externally (why should they pass along all that delicious pagerank?)
BBC's better than most.

Mat, did I ever show you this Jay Rosen video about "the ethic of the link"? Perfectly illustrates what you're saying about stickiness.
