Erring on the side of slander

Andrew Sullivan points out that “a summary of [National Public Radio’s] corrections about the Middle East in the past two years finds something remarkable for being unremarkable.

Hmmm.” Sullivan picked this up from the Acharit HaYamim blog, which links to NPR’s corrections on all subjects over the past two years.
