Journalism is Not What it Seems

by Ari Herzog on May 29, 2008

This is too funny not to mention:

In today’s Newburyport Daily News, there is an editorial praising Salem State College becoming a university.

It is a misnomer to assume a Newburyport editor wrote it as the time stamp is 3:20 a.m.

The Salem News, owned by the same parent publishing house, ran the same editorial three hours earlier.

Moreover, people can comment on one editorial or the other, but because of different sources the comments are not seen by all. I ask the editors: why?
