And so it goes. New York
Times reporter Rick
Bragg has been suspended
for two weeks. The Columbia Journalism Review website
has
the details.
Here's what I don't get. Bragg is a
Pulitzer winner. He was working with an intern -- an intern who
actually went to the scene and did the bulk of the reporting. Ethics
aside, why wasn't Bragg magnanimous enough to give the kid a byline?
Hell, why didn't he put the kid's name first?
Argh.
