The Globe and Mail - Who’s on First?

Filed under: Canadian Election 2006 — The Northern Pundit @ 3:04 pm

Paul Wells’ blog on McLeans.ca has a great piece about a few of the Globe’s mistakes while reporting election race results:

The Globe has not corrected either story. It continues to brag, in every day’s edition of the paper, that its poll coverage offers “an unprecedented degree of insight every day.” This claim was already grotesque, even before the Globe’s journalists began succumbing to the plague of innumeracy that has lately beset that newspaper.

I usually enjoy his posts - might be worth a bookmark for you.
