Why shouldn't Rolling Stone be considered serious journalism? Their popularity may come and go, but they aren't a satirical magazine. Their demographic and content might lead more towards an "MTV crowd", but their history is of factual popular content and they're a big name.

Well if they are selling themselves as a real journalist establishment, I could side with you. But there is a very important difference in the reasoning. Libel laws are a huge infringement on first amendment rights. Contract violations through false adversitising must be illegal though.
