The Times vs. bloggers on Atlantic Yards: who practices the journalism of verification?
TimesRatnerReport
by Norman Oder
I basically agree with [New York Times executive editor Bill Keller], that journalists do--or aim to do--much more than bloggers. But sometimes bloggers, such as myself, do a lot more research than Times reporters.
Oder cites Ratner's jobs figures to make his point.
NoLandGrab: If the Times's "worldwide network of trained, skilled" reporters didn't deliver such transparently skewed reportage of their business partner's Brooklyn proposal, Oder could pull up stakes and many Brooklynites would have more free time.
