liamstliamI am curious about something.
As some of you know, I was a newspaper reporter for 11 years before becoming a teacher, I have worked part-time at papers on and off since then, and I am a total Web newspaper geek.
I wonder what some of you think about the reporting scandals at the New York Times and USA Today. When you have professional interests, sometime you overreact.
I recently read Jayson Blair's book, and most of the time, I had to explain to people who he was.
