The Oregonian was compelled to run a correction after originally reporting that Caldwell had died alone in a parked car.
Via @Ewerickson. Also, given that the relationship was apparently financial – mistress services in exchange for help with textbooks, reportedly – is this a bad time to note that I’m wondering how much I should push this AbeBooks Textbook searches affiliate link? I’m not sure, given the incredibly crass last two sentences of the Daily Caller article: it set the bar really, really high for something being more offensive…
Where I the editor, I would not have run that correction.
And people wonder why no one trusts print media anymore.
