Cleveland Plain Dealer
Editor Susan Goldberg decided to a run the Washington Post's shorter story on John McCain, which alluded to the New York Times' story but avoided the romantic implication. "That still did not satisfy the angry readers who called Thursday, arguing that by reporting it at all, The Plain Dealer was giving it credence," writes ombud Ted Diadiun. "But the story was out there anyway, whether we did something with it or not." More editor/ombud columns:
> Tacoma paper doesn't run NYT's "long and rambling" McCain story (TNT)
> Orlando Sentinel readers tell ombud where they'd steer the paper (OS)
> Times-Union names black woman to editorial board, gets reaction (T-U)
> N&O "went to extra lengths to treat" controversial professor fairly (N&O)
> Indianapolis Star increases type size, announces other changes (Star)
> AJ-C published 809 corrections in '07, compared with 985 in '06 (AJ-C)
> "We should give more details about what is being corrected" (SAE-N)
> Print errors may be down because mistakes are caught online (RMN)
> Bee lets readers instantly self-post comments, sky has yet to fall (SB)
