I'm sorry, but when I read someone scoring the Internet "medium" for Engagement and "low" for Size of Information, it makes me think that your use of the Internet is very limited. If you want to see "engagement" check out some popular message boards where users interact with each other for years. If you want to see 'size of information", I invite you to view Amazon or Google books. Web/internet marketing is far superior to print or tv, and will push them to obsolescence in time.

You mention discovery channel, the New York Times is also one of the traditional media houses who cannot convert their business models to the web. Many analysts wrote that a media power house should buy digg, and in essence buy traffic, but as you say, the value of digg in itself is not clear, and that's probably why the website didn't find any acquirer so far. And also for the first time in years, Internet advertising growth has stopped ... which means the traditional media need to re-invent the business model, bring new kinds of interactions and new kinds of values to their readers. This is an area I am following, so stick around, there will be an update soon. Richard, great point, the transition from print/tv to the Internet is not smooth at all.

For example, discovery channel have payed recently $10 million for treehugger and $20 million for a similar site. I think it is a big learning curve for traditional media to enter the web and not fully understand how it operates. Take Digg for example. This site would have 10 million + members, but do a search and you will find it is considered nothing more than a spam site. Most of the articles posted on these type of sites are webmasters trying to promote their own websites and have multiple memberships in the 100's to digg their article and get traffic. You can even purchase scripts to 'Digg' your article hundreds of times. The higher the number of 'Diggs', the bigger chance of making Digg's front page and getting a burst of traffic. I can see large media operators getting their fingers burnt in the future, but eventually the web will be owned by the likes of them.
