Romenesko Memos | Washington Post
New York Times public editor
Byron Calame responds to Knight Ridder Washington editor
Clark Hoyt's complaint about KR not getting credit in a Times story on mine safety violation fines: "I believe The Times’s March 2 article was based on 'a data analysis by The New York Times' that constituted original work. ...Bottom line, Clark, I don’t believe it was unethical of The Times not to refer to the earlier articles. So, as public editor, I won’t be urging the The Times to publish any acknowledgment of the K-R article." (Read Hoyt's
