Love Journalism Blogs

This summer, I discovered a wonderful blog called Regret the Error. It's a site that highlights errors made by magazines and newspapers.  Some of the errors are funny; some are pathetic.  I thought I'd just highlight a number-related mistake:  The Reason, for some reason, used outdated census data for a story in the August/September issue ranking of 35 largest cities in terms of personal freedoms.  Apparently,  Oklahoma City, Tucson, Albuquerque and Fresno should have replaced Miami, Kansas City, Oakland and Cleveland.  Ooops.
