Blogger on Regret the Error

Craig Silverman started his blog Regret the Error in October 2004 to advance the practice of journalism. Silverman compiles published corrections and offers insights into how reporters and editors can improve their accuracy. In this Q&A, he talks about why he started the blog, his favorite corrections and the book he's working on.

I've long been an avid reader of corrections and thought that their short, pithy, and often hilarious nature made them perfect for a blog. I also thought my background working in communications for companies and as a journalist made me a good fit to look at the issue of corrections and media accuracy from a balanced perspective....

The idea was to raise the issue, highlight the best/worst corrections, start a dialogue about how the media can be more accurate, and investigate whether the correction actually works.
