The Modern Era's Dewey Defeats Truman...
Via The Apprentice
04/16/2004 01:11 PMMaybe it's a sign of the times or a sign of the technology... or maybe
someone just pushed the wrong story live. However, in a web-based
modern update of
Dewey
defeating Truman, USA Today is getting some flak for publishing a
story saying the
losing candidate won The
Apprentice finale last night. We've seen similar things with
obituaries of still living celebrities showing up in newspapers. It
does raise some questions about the process by which newspapers
"pre-write" certain stories and what sort of approval process/workflow
they need to push them live. Such is life in the world of one-click
publishing - where you also have the ability to do a one-click
delete... and hope that no one spotted your mistake, made a copy
and alerted Reuters.

unique method of distributing the documentary, selling the DVD for
distribution through political action groups. Lessig has
some interesting comments about this.

Dewey Defeats Edwards... Yet Another
News Screwup
07/06/2004 01:19 PMThe rush to publish first is making for an awful lot of
Dewey
Defeats Truman style stories showing up this year. Earlier this
year, USA Today published a story on their site with the
wrong
candidate winning the reality TV show
The Apprentice. Last
month, a Tampa paper incorrectly reported that their own hometown
hockey team
had
lost the Stanley Cup, when, in fact, they had won. The latest is
that the NY Post is running into some trouble for
reporting
that John Kerry picked Dick Gephardt to be his running mate, when
the reality is that he picked John Edwards. What's interesting,
though, is that the NY Post has simply deleted the incorrect story
from their website, without a notice, explanation or apology. This
certainly raises questions about how the press handles mistakes
online. It's a running joke in the news media how they publish huge
mistakes on page one, and retract them two weeks later in tiny print
hidden in the "corrections" section somewhere in the middle of the
paper. However, in an age of instant publication (where people can
link to you right away), it seems like a more reasonable thing to do
is to admit that you were wrong and post an explanation at that
location, rather than simply "disappearing" the story and pretending
it never happened.

Xeni Jardin:
BoingBoing reader
Rod says,
In the UK, Rupert Murdoch's "The Sun" tabloid -- famous for it's
topless models on Page 3 -- has decided that merely displaying a
couple of boobs to increase circulation is not enough. Now,
accompanying the lady proudly displaying her knockers, is a small
snippet of right-wing Murdoch-approved propoganda, purporting to be
the opinion of the Page 3 Girl. Tim Ireland's gathered together some
prime examples from the last 8 months.

Too Angry To Be Elected: Harry Truman
12/15/2003 11:40 AMThere's an argument going around that Howard Dean is too "angry and
brusque" and that his campaign is "giving angry, protest-oriented
activists the rope they need to hang the party". Certainly, the
Republicans are gearing up to push this angle. However, it pays to
know history; specifically, the presidential election of 1948. That
year, much to the surprise of the pundits and oddsmakers, Harry
Truman beat Thomas Dewey by a healthy margin, both in the popular vote
and electoral vote.
