The Boston Globe is at it again...

by Graham Email

Normally I don't cross-link between my various blogs, mainly because they cover very separate (and different) areas of interest, and somebody interested in (say) Information Technology may not wish to read my latest rants about politics.
However, today's blog entry from Eric Alterman, taking the Boston Globe to task for what can only be described as sloppy journalism, reminded me of the incident in 2002, when a pilot flying a plane not dissimilar to mine (i.e. a Long-EZ) crashed into the sea in the plane off Martha's Vineyard. The story of how the Boston Globe (and the Boston Herald) managed to get just about everything wrong, including ignoring the facts, is here.
The latest example of what can only be described as journalistic sleepwalking on the part of the Boston Globe is explained here.
