I think on civilian casualties they could do more. It's actually something I've discussed with the editors involved. They're aware of it, and I'm hopeful that there will be more reporting on that.
From Daniel Okrent
I know there are reporters who ridicule pundits.
The Times' new credibility committee report that was issued on Monday very specifically said they will be putting in a policy that reporters must get permission from their department heads to appear on television, which I think is a really good thing.
It's a very complicated issue about when is a fact not a fact in the context of opinions.
But I think it's undeniable that the Times is a liberal paper.
I think Tierney is also more libertarian than he is conservative in the conventional sense.
Right, but there's expertise and then there's inside information. And I think we have to make a distinction.
Now I worry. If people ended up liking me, did I do the job wrong? So I decided they didn't end up liking me - they ended up being able to deal with me.
If there had been three public editors before me, the body might have absorbed it a little bit better.
