Some journos take corrections easily, and some don't. I've had people
directly misquote me at major outlets where I had the call on record
(with their consent, since CA is a 2 party consent state for recording
calls,) and refuse to make corrections, and had other people accept my
corrections at face value and put them in to place. I may not have
time to do so today, but would encourage anyone interested (probably
better if it's only a person or two and not a horde in this case) to
contact the author of the Atlantic piece about the issues. Probably
those directly interviewed by the journalist would be the best
candidates to put in for a correction.
Best,
Kevin Gorman
