Go over to Confederate Yankee to learn about an important mistake an MSM journalist made. It got corrected with a big assist from one of our own Tar Hell bloggers, Bob Owens.
Bob spoted a major statistical error in MSM reporting from Iraq. He emailed the reporter who first reported the error. There was a bump or two, and the reporter initially disagreed with Bob but things worked out.
The MSM reporter corrected his mistake in a way that left you thinking, "Why can't we have more journalists like this guy?"
Bob's devotes a lot of his community service time to helping make Raleigh's News & Observer a better paper.
Good luck, Bob. We're glad you're in North Carolina and the blogosphere.
