So it's a show?: keeping up with the Gilmore Girls
ep 124: We're seriously considering Howell Raines-ing her (A Fragile Trust)
Stop the presses—we’ve got a scandal! We’re trying to figure out what “Howell Raines-ing” Paris means for the Yale Daily News Staff, which means we’re doing some investigative journalism about Raines and his role in the Jayson Blair scandal of the early ‘00s. We watch the documentary A Fragile Trust: Plagiarism, Power and Jayson Blair at the New York Times, and then we ask questions like: How many lies can you tell before you get caught? Can you lose the company car and keep your job? And is the Yale newsroom the breeding ground for the next Howell Raines?
