Raleigh News & Observer
In chasing information like birth certificate listings, which the News & Observer did last week, "it becomes easy to get caught up in the salacious details and drop the restraint that has marked The N&O's responsible approach to the [John Edwards' alleged mistress/"love child"] story," writes ombud Ted Vaden. "[Edwards] is now, after all, a private figure, and there's a point where examining his sex life doesn't serve a public interest and risks turning a respectable newspaper into 'The News and Enquirer.'" || More editor/ombud columns:
> Obama's creaming McCain in the number of WP photos and stories (WP)
> Keller: Death, carnage shouldn't be erased from war coverage (NYT)
> Reaction to SacBee redesign ranges from "I love it!" to "A disaster!" (SB)
> Most perplexing feedback of all was whether Bee was harder to read (SB)
> Argus Leader's Beck tells Gannett editors why he writes a column (AL)
