Jack Kelly at RealClearPolitics.com has a good piece on some questionable reporting at the Chicago Sun-Times. An excerpt:

Jennifer Hunter is married to Chicago Sun-Times publisher John Cruickshank, which explains why Ms. Hunter writes a column for the Chicago Sun-Times. Here is why she should not. On July 16, Ms. Hunter wrote a column which began: “After watching the top five Democratic candidates for president speak before a trial lawyers’ group Sunday, attorney Jim Ronca of Philadelphia, a staunch Republican, became certain of one thing: He is not going to vote for a Republican in the 2008 presidential election.” A suspicious reader checked out Mr. Ronca’s political contributions. Mr. Ronca had made 14 since 1994 — 12 to Democrats. The Democratic candidates received $7,000; the GOP candidates $750. Mr. Ronca’s contribution record was posted on several Web sites, whose readers flooded Ms. Hunter with demands for a correction. If Ms. Hunter had fessed up, I wouldn’t be writing about her. But she responded by attacking Web loggers for doing the research she should have done, and blaming her error on her editor.
