I was jes' sayin' ... you know, that it has the same feel to it as the Corrections board. First you make the mistake in the article that everyone reads, but then you make a correction on the correction fray board that no one reads. It's that non-equal space that doesn't feel right; just like when newspapers print their corrections to headline articles in the back of section 13, four weeks later. (To Slate's credit, their authors do a damn good job of tagging corrections to the bottom of their articles.)

I'm not sure Gatewood is being fair, calling the editors too lazy for failing to post the responses to the article... if they posted the responses in the fray, they did the work; the question isn't laziness, the question is discernment. Schad makes a good point that noting the response in the Fraywatch article would give equal billing, but I don't like the disconnect; especially for outside sources unfamiliar with the fray. I agree with your top post observation that those type responses belong attached to the bottom of the article ... in the white space, before the gray space replies that sometimes get attached from the fray.
