“Reputable news organizations don’t repeatedly make unannounced corrections, full stop.”

How many people here continue to read Slate, the Washington Post, and the New Republic despite the fact that all three publications-nearly to a person-crapped the bed on the second Iraq War? I do.

I don’t think the Guardian can be FULLY trusted (no publication can be), which is why I questioned the “refused a lawyer/offered a lawyer in the 9th hour” distinction. That’s big. But again, if Miranda wasn’t offered a lawyer til the last hour & refused a translator, how does that make us safer?
