The combined print edition of the Fort Worth Star–Telegram for Friday and Saturday, 16 & 17 October, 2020, carried a headline article, above the fold on the front page, entitled Activists protest plan to transport nuclear waste through DFW. The quality of reporting evidenced in this article was shockingly poor. It consisted almost entirely of quotes from various people, the most prominent being former State Senator Lon Burnam, mouthing the tired old antinuclear positions. No attempt was made to challenge any of these statements. But don’t take my word for it (as LeVar Burton would say), read for yourself.

Scans of the article, my letter to the editor in response, and more! )
