The best and worst journalism of August 2016 by David Uberti.
Before you read Uberti’s post:
Take a few minutes to find stories you recall from August and sort them into best and worst, along with your reasons.
It’s one thing to passively go along with the judgment of others, it takes real effort to form a judgment of your own.
Now, compare your stories to Uberti’s.
Same, different? Were your reasons different?
What stories did Uberti “miss?”
PS: The boosterism of the New York Times for Iraqi militias merits a “worst” place, at least to me.
