Reading assignments for Tuesday's class

For class on Tuesday, please read pages 352 to 369 in the AP Stylebook (2007 edition). The pages may be slightly off in other years' editions, but it is the section that starts out "Legal Principles of Publication" and ends with the section entitled "Corrections and retraction demands" (read that section, too).

We will also be discussing the article I linked to in an earlier post about a TV station that muted a mistake made by a candidate during a debate. Come prepared to take on the role of the editor or producer making the decision on what to do in this ticklish situation.
