Don't worry, they get everything else correct.
"If you don't read a newspaper you are uninformed, if you do read a newspaper you are misinformed."

"Editor: A person employed by a newspaper, whose business it is to separate the wheat from the chaff, and to see to it that the chaff is printed." This from Elbert Hubbard.
And Norman Mailer wrote, "Once a newspaper touches a story the facts are lost forever, even to the protagonist."
And Thomas Jefferson wrote, "The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers."

Yes but the damage is done. I think if something that grievous is put into print and is wrong the editor should be forced to stand still as the accursed party gets one free swing with a bat, as long as it is not to the head.

In today’s News & Observer (Raleigh) the front page featured a photo of election officials counting what the caption called ‘provincial’ ballots. Another example of our ‘credentialed but uneducated’ class.
