Technically, yes. However, they do get away with it most of the times because they go unnoticed. I can tell you without hesitation that there are plenty of articles being published everyday where at least 90% of the story itself is inaccurate and nobody would even notice it nor make a noise over it.
The bloggers can and do get sued for defamation sometimes.
