Good Journalism for You A week or so ago I was interviewed by a writer from USA Today for a piece on Harvard Rules and Ross Douthat's book. Today I just received a letter from the paper—the "USA Today Accuracy Survey." The letter asked if the piece had made any specific mistakes, and if I thought it was fair or unfair, and in what capacity I'd been interviewed.

Such a simple tool to improve journalism, but I've never seen any other newspaper do this. (And good luck getting a correction in the New York Times, if they do you wrong.)
