• Karen Street Says: 1 December 2008 at 9:28 AM Re #6–can your school newspaper find a way to work with someone(s) from various departments to do fact checking? The letter I sent Susan Gilbert (and thanks for providing the name and e-mail): For many years, the Chron has printed numerous accurate articles on climate change, many of which (The Difference a Degree [F] Makes) help give context to what is happening, and will happen. There also seems to be an acceptance that it is OK to have columnists/op-eds on both the right and left provide political perspective based on information that isn’t true. I have learned from columnists whose political views differ from mine, sometimes differ by a lot. You provide a valuable service to people like me by presenting this variety of views. However, you damage public discourse when you allow columnists like Saunders to make claims that are not true, or to cite people’s whose thinking has been rejected by scientific and policiy experts. This differs
