Good (and long) post from Danny Sullivan about the recent newspapers vs. Google debacle. (via Kevin Anderson)

Eight years of Bush administration press pool photography, as selected by the head photo editors of AP, AFP, and Reuters.

"Does the truth lie halfway between say, slavery and abolition, or between segregation and civil rights, or between communism and democracy? If you quote Dietrich Bonhoeffer or Winston Churchill, in other words, must you then give equal time and credence to Hitler and Joseph Goebbels? If you write an article that's critical of John McCain, are you then obligated to devote an identical number of words to criticism of Barack Obama, and vice versa?"

So that WSJ article, about Obama being too skinny? Turns out the WSJ writer - who had quoted people on a Yahoo message board - started the thread specifically asking people if he was too skinny. WHAT RESEARCH! WHAT JOURNALISM!

I like this Giles Coren chap.

Escapist talks about the sordid world of game reviews.
