I Guess We Should Be Thankful It Wasn’t the Print Edition

Girlfriday reports on the Statesman disclosing the name of a young sexual assault victim,  a dangerous journalistic gaffe. They did change the story in a later revision of the online version. Good thing it hadn’t gone to print.

    Thanks for the link Adam.

    Yes, it is good news it didn’t go to print. My sister, Lois E. Lane posted that particular story. She’s in journalism and there is no love loss between her and the Statesman. In fact, I don’t know anyone who likes that paper. Lefties claim it leans to the right, and right-wingers say it’s a mouthpiece for the lefties.
