^ That Reuters link is not to a news article. It's to a press release written by Western Governor's University, which is an online school.
In other words, it's not a valid source.
I don't know of any reputable online programs that are based in universities near you, but there are some good, brick and mortar schools out there that offer online degrees. Often, they're hard to find in google searches - what tends to come up in such searches are the for-profit unis, as they have the marketing budgets. Instead, it's often best to find out what all the unis local to you are, and then go directly to them - to their website, or even to call them - to ask if they offer online degrees.
For example, some of the Cal States do, but this isn't a well advertised fact. I have no idea which Cal States are near you, so I can't tell you if those local to you offer online degrees. You'll have to contact them.
As another poster said, USC does offer online degrees in your field, and it's a well respected school. It might be a reasonable choice, if you can't find something more local.
Other solid schools that, as I remember it, offer degrees in your major online (you'll need to check specifics re: major) include Worcester Polytechnic, Carnegie Mellon, U Illinois Urbana, UMass, U Maryland, Penn State, and Drexel. These are well established, respected, brick and mortar unis. Some are even tops in your field.
