Editor & Publisher, true to it's committment to monopoly of the presses by, what else, Editors and Publishers, failed to provide a link to a site that served as a watchdog on the story. They did mention it. Good thing they didn't link though. They misspelled it.
Following the March 31 correction, Slater's story had gotten increased scrutiny from numerous observers, ranging from the Enterprise-Record to LAObseved.com, a watchdog site.Where were the four or five editors who vet every story???
UPDATE: (April 20) Slater wasn't just a reporter. Link
Slater joined the Times in 1994 and formerly served as the paper’s Chicago bureau chief. He shared an Overseas Press Club award for reporting on the U.S. intervention in Afghanistan.
