@albrgr @KelseyTuoc I just don't know that the press really did "screw up" according to media logic ... the press coverage faithfully reflected the evolving information from credentialed experts and public health authorities. — PolitiTweet.org

@albrgr @KelseyTuoc Well flip it around, why apologize? It would give ammunition to bad-faith actors who are trying to delegitimize the press for personal benefit while doing nothing to appease critics or make readers happy. I did it to drum up interest in my newsletter, but why would the NYT? — PolitiTweet.org

@KelseyTuoc @albrgr Yeah, there's an interesting question as to why health reporters define their mission so differently from journalists on other beats. But I don't think they think this is a "mistake" and when you and I criticize it, we're not "apologizing" we're bragging. — PolitiTweet.org
