As has been said, the Internet is just a medium, but the instant nature of it makes it easy to highlight stupid/lazy people.
I'm sure some of you have heard of people who spend their time waiting for a well known person to die/marry/devorce or otherwise do something newsworthy then edit their Wikipedia page to include something incorrect, hopeing to catch out lazy journalists who copy+paste from there. It's the person who believes the incorrect information that is lazy/stupid on the Internet, not the fault of the Internet it's self.
