of Opinion, the Obligations of Fact
I find this an interesting piece on the relationship
of fact to opinion in the practice of journalism. It should have
some relationship to our discussions of how historians operate,
and the difference between historians and polemicists. I see
the historian much like the journalist, and the polemicist like
the opinion columnist. Some of the salient points:
"But who is to say what
is factually accurate? Or whether a quotation is misrepresented?
Or whether facts are used or misused in such a fashion as to
render a columnist's opinion unfair? Or even whether fairness
has anything to do with opinion in the first place?"
"The opinion writer chooses
which facts to present, and which to withhold. He can paint individuals
he likes as paragons, and those he disdains as scoundrels. The
more scurrilous practitioners rely on indirection and innuendo,
nestling together in a bed of lush sophistry. I sometimes think
opinion columns ought to carry a warning: "The following
is solely the opinion of the author, supported by data I alone
have chosen to include. Live with it." Opinion is inherently
unfair."
I particularly like the disclaimer, and feel
our friend Mr. Staudenmaier might consider it for his writing:
"The following is solely the opinion of the author, supported
by data I alone have chosen to include."

The Public Editor: The
Privileges of Opinion, the Obligations of Fact
March 28, 2004
By DANIEL OKRENT
IT sounds like a simple question:
Should opinion columnists be subject to the same corrections
policy that governs the work of every other writer at The Times?
So simple, in fact, that you must know that only an ornate answer
could follow.
For the news pages, the rule
is succinct. "Because its voice is loud and far-reaching,"
the paper's stylebook says, "The Times recognizes an ethical
responsibility to correct all its factual errors, large and small
(even misspellings of names), promptly and in a prominent reserved
space in the paper." But on the page where The Times's seven
Op-Ed columnists roam, there has long been no rule at all, or
at least not one clearly elucidated and publicly promulgated.
When I began in this job last fall, I was told The Times considered
the space granted Op-Ed columnists theirs to use as they wish,
subject only to the limits of legality, decency and publisher
Arthur O. Sulzberger Jr.'s patience. Columnists decided when
to run corrections, and where in their columns to run them.
But several days ago, editorial
page editor Gail Collins handed me a memo in response to my inquiries.
(You can read it in its entirety at www.nytimes.com/danielokrent;
look for posting No. 22.) Less a formal statute than an explanation
and justification of practice, the document lays out the position
of both Collins and her boss, Sulzberger, who bears ultimate
responsibility for hiring and firing columnists. Collins explains
why columnists must be allowed the freedom of their opinions,
but insists that they "are obviously required to be factually
accurate. If one of them makes an error, he or she is expected
to promptly correct it in the column." Corrections, under
this new rule, are to be placed at the end of a subsequent column,
"to maximize the chance that they will be seen by all their
readers, everywhere," a reference to the wide syndication
many of the columnists enjoy.
But who is to say what is
factually accurate? Or whether a quotation is misrepresented?
Or whether facts are used or misused in such a fashion as to
render a columnist's opinion unfair? Or even whether fairness
has anything to do with opinion in the first place? Can you imagine
one of the Sunday morning television screamfests instituting
a corrections policy?
In the consciously cynical
words of a retired Times editor, speaking for all the hard-news
types who find most commentary to be frippery, "How can
you expect fairness from columnists when they make up all that
stuff anyway?"
Of course they don't make
the stuff up (at least the good ones don't). But many do use
their material in ways that veer sharply from conventional journalistic
practice. The opinion writer chooses which facts to present,
and which to withhold. He can paint individuals he likes as paragons,
and those he disdains as scoundrels. The more scurrilous practitioners
rely on indirection and innuendo, nestling together in a bed
of lush sophistry. I sometimes think opinion columns ought to
carry a warning: "The following is solely the opinion of
the author, supported by data I alone have chosen to include.
Live with it." Opinion is inherently unfair.
Columnists also attract a
crowd radically unlike the audience that sticks to the news pages.
Judging by my mail, the more partisan of The Times's columnists
draw two distinct sets of fanatical loyalists: those who wish
to have their own views reinforced, and those who enjoy the hot
thrill of a blood-pressure spike. Paul Krugman, writes Nadia
Koutzen of Toms River, N.J., "makes more sense (along with
Bob Herbert) than anyone. He states irrefutable facts."
Paul Krugman, writes Donald Luskin of Palo Alto, Calif., has
committed "dozens of substantive factual errors, distortions,
misquotations and false quotations - all pronounced in a voice
of authoritativeness that most columnists would not presume to
permit themselves."
For a wider audience, Luskin
serves as Javert to Krugman's Jean Valjean. From a perch on National
Review Online, he regularly assaults Krugman's logic, his politics,
his economic theories, his character and his accuracy. (If you
want to see what kind of a rumble can evolve from a columnist's
use of a quotation, go to posting No. 23 of my Web journal to
find a series of links relating to a recent charge against Krugman:
can you figure out who's right?) Similarly, David Corn of The
Nation has taken aim at William Safire, charging in one recent
piece that "under the cover of opinion journalism,"
Safire is "dishing out disinformation." And Maureen
Dowd is followed faithfully around the Web by an avenging army
of passionate detractors who would probably be devastated if
she ever stopped writing.
Anyone who calls the Internet's
bustling trade in columnist-attack a cottage industry might more
accurately liken it to the arms bazaar in Peshawar. Peace and
calm were not enhanced a few weeks ago when Times lawyers took
a legal sledgehammer to an imaginary Op-Ed corrections column
published by Robert Cox of the Web site The National Debate -
but peace and calm rarely accompany arguments about political
opinion in a polarized age.
This sort of contentiousness
makes a clear, publicly stated corrections policy necessary,
and finding a bright line in such murky precincts isn't easy.
At the very minimum, anything that is indisputably inaccurate
must be corrected: there is no protected opinion that holds that
the sun rises in the west. Same with the patent misuse or distortion
of quotations that are already in the public record. But if Safire
asserts that there is a "smoking gun" linking Al Qaeda
to Saddam Hussein, then even David Corn's best shots (which include
many citations from Times news stories) aren't going to prove
it isn't so. "An opinion may be wrongheaded," Safire
told me by e-mail last week, "but it is never wrong. A belief
or a conviction, no matter how illogical, crackbrained or infuriating,
is an idea subject to vigorous dispute but is not an assertion
subject to editorial or legal correction."
Safire good-humoredly (I think)
asked me to whom he could complain if I quoted him out of context.
I had a ready answer: "No one - I'm a columnist."
I generally don't like to
engage in comparative newspapering, but I thought it was worth
knowing what other papers do with (or to) their columnists. At
The Boston Globe (owned by The New York Times Company), editorial
page editor Renee Loth's practice is almost identical to the
one now in place here; so is the policy of Paul Gigot, who presides
over the opinion pages at The Wall Street Journal (definitely
not owned by The Times). The Los Angeles Times actually allows
its readers' representative to participate in decisions on columnist
corrections. (No thanks, I'd rather not.) At The Washington Post,
if a columnist doesn't want to write a correction recommended
by editorial page editor Fred Hiatt, Hiatt will put one on the
op-ed page himself. At every one of these papers, the final arbiter
is the editorial page editor.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who
would have made an excellent editorial page editor if he could
have put up with the meetings, once said that "everyone
is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts."
Gail Collins's determination that corrections will appear on
their own at the end of a succeeding column, and not disappear
into an unrelated digression, is on its own a significant piece
of progress. But it's her assertion of responsibility that matters
most. Critics might say her statement of policy is very gently
phrased, but when I asked her if there was wiggle room, she was
unequivocal: "It is my obligation to make sure no misstatements
of fact on the editorial pages go uncorrected."
In the coming months I expect
columnist corrections to become a little more frequent and a
lot more forthright than they've been in the past. Yet the final
measure of Collins's success, and of the individual columnists,
will be not in the corrections but in the absence of the need
for them. Wayne Wren of Houston, a self-described conservative
and "avid reader" of National Review Online, expressed
it with great equanimity in a recent e-mail message to my office:
"If Mr. Krugman is making egregious errors in his Op-Ed
column, they will catch up with him." Same goes for Brooks,
Dowd, Friedman, Herbert, Kristof and Safire - and, most important,
for The New York Times.

Hi Daniel, welcome back. You wrote:

That is precisely why your views on this topic are so naive.
You have completely misunderstood what historians do. Historians
do not simply report supposedly straightforward facts. We question
supposedly straightforward facts, and we quite often refute what
contemporary media may have reported about these facts. What
historians do is analyze complex facts and offer hypotheses and
explanations for these complex facts. Our role is much more similar
to the "Analysis" pieces in the NYTimes, which I suppose
you could say are sort of halfway between regular news articles
and op-ed pieces. This is why journalism and history are distinct
disciplines.

Ah, that's why there is saying that history
is invented by historians to be very busy. I think it is wrong
way if historians add their personal thoughts, which they call
"explanations", to the science, like so called "analytics"
do in NYTimes. What you think are explanations, can be something
really different if we come to the history facts.

Ah, the role and responsibility of the historian.
Interesting topic.
Historians don't work with facts. They work
with evidence.
Written evidence: letters, diaries, contemporary
history, contemporary articles, and so forth.
Archaeological evidence: physical artifacts
whether recovered or preserved.
Created evidence: interviews with the actors
who participated in an event. Especially common in military history,
but turns up in other fields.
Once historians have the evidence, what do
they do with it? A lot of the time they simply carefully compile
and organize the evidence and then offer a small and narrow thesis.
I was recently looking at medieval watermills as an example of
a research topic. The available data has kindly been organized
and analyzed by historians and archaeologists. This makes it
possible for the bigger thinking historians, Braudel being a
good example, to write three large volumes on aspects of economic
life in the world between 1400 and 1800. The only way people
can write "big history" is if lots of other hardworking
and largely unnoticed people write small history.
Now, let us say that I want to write a big
book about cultural change in Elizabethan England. I'm going
to depend on many other historians work compiling and organizing
the fundamental data. I need to accurately cite every single
one of these other historians, indicate exactly what I got from
each of them and make it possible for anyone who questions any
piece of my thesis to track down the source and see if it supports
my argument.
I've only seen one piece by PS on any topic.
It wasn't good history writing. Does anyone have any example
that meets the basic criteria described above? As a serious reader
of history, I will not treat any work seriously that doesn't
have a full set of end notes and a complete bibliography.

Sorry, that is Journalism and Journalism has

dear Peter, Bradfordianism is correct when he names Steiner as
the Greatest Historican of the I AM that has yet presented research.
Now, that, that is the ideal of great history.

Daniel:
Peter, you are polarizing the issue to create
a false dichotomy. The issue in history, as in journalism is
not simply whether or not there is any interpretation or opinion
mixed in the presentation of facts. Both history and journalism
have some interpretation and opinion mixed in. Several authors
have demonstrated that this is in fact an inevitability in all
writing. Rather than viewing the question in a polarizing either-or
light, I suggest that philosophy of history (and of journalism)
can see the prejudices of the author as falling on a continuum
between the poles of the admittedly impossible "objectivity"
and what I would term "absolute bias". All authors
are more or less objective, and more or less biased, in their
work, and all to varying degrees. It is not an either-or proposition.
I suggest that fundamentally, efforts towards objectivity tend
to land closer to truth than efforts to "prove" a point
(like that Steiner was a racist, for example). What did Steiner
really think about the relationship of the individual to society?
Peter, I must say, I find you incredibly weak-minded for someone
as apparently clever as you are. I have written at great length
on philosophy of history, and all you can get from it is that
I "apparently" stand for antiquarianism, a position
I have already addressed at length. If you can't grasp my rather
simple presentation on philosophy of history, I am not at all
surprised that you fall flat on your face when you open a Steiner
book.
The naive view is the one that paints a false polarity over a
complex phenomenon.

I apply to the psychotherapy process here.
If you know Carl Rogers client-centric therapy process, when
therapist is completely NOT giving any analysis, and just letting

And I suppose you account your readers as naive (being the historical
person in terms you provided), if you try to "chew out"

That's downright stupid, in my view. Transference takes place

Daniel states:
What did Steiner really think about the
relationship of the individual to society?
Daniel, it's hard to believe you think that's
the question to solve to figure out whether there is racism in
Rudolf Steiner.
It's not much better than Tarjei's comparison
to McCarthy. Racists, like other people, could think of a hundred
ways to organize individuals' relationship to society, and it
wouldn't necessarily have anything to do with whether they were
racist.
What, in your mind, did that question have
to do with Steiner's racism or proving the lack thereof? I could
suspect (though I'd just be guessing) it has to do with the fond
notion espoused by some here that a racist would not want people
of inferior races "integrated" or "assimilated"
into society (the way Tarjei and Bradford, for instance, seem
to believe that lusting after Jewish women means they can't be
anti-Semitic). Or perhap, it is another vague reference to the
idea that the "I Am" rises above race? In each society,
you "incarnate" there for awhile, but of course your
spiritual self "rises above" all that.
In a later post from Daniel:
[from the thread "Steiner on Racial Evolution"]
If you actually read the entire lecture
where this idea is presented, you might notice that the defining
characteristic - the identifier - that places individuals into
one race or the other is their behavior! Those who DO good, become
good. Those who DO evil, become evil.
Oh God, Daniel, this is so disgusting. Those
who do good become good and get a nice skin color to show
it, right?
In Steiner's view, at this future point
many thousands of years in the future, behavior will actually
determine racial affiliation. Race is not the marker, behavior
is.
And you guys talk about reading comprehension!
If behavior determines racial affiliation, then race is the marker
for behavior. That's what a "marker" means. (It seems
almost unbelievable to have to point this out, but this "dividing
into good and evil races" is rather childlike thinking,
even aside from whether race, or something else, is the marker.)
Can you really not grasp that to be nonracist,
it would need to toss out the correlations to race, anyway?
You can still have your silly apocalyptic division of humanity
into good versus evil. To be tied in some essentialist, spiritualized
manner to your race is a racist concept, whether the tie is your
behavior or who your daddy was in the old days "when race
mattered." Think real hard! Your "philosophy of history"
pretensions are so helpful in allowing you to avoid ever discussing
this!
Maybe we could forget, just for a minute,
about how juvenile it is to picture dividing humanity into good
vs. evil. Let's say we could really do this. Line up, boys and
girls. Now. I'm going to hand out face paint, so we will know
who is on which team. The good ones must paint themselves, say,
purple, and the evil ones, how about green. (Anything but gray,
or Tarjei will have nightmares!) It will be very colorful and
then we will always be certain who is good and who is evil.
Remember Dr. Seuss's The Sneetches? "The
Star-Belly Sneetches / Had bellies with stars. / The Plain-Belly
Sneetches / Had none upon thars." And after that, things
got ugly?
