How Journalists Work
I found this entry in www.bildblog.de which shows how many – at least German – journalists seem to work. They verify their information using Wikipedia, only.
The anonymous author of the blog entry changed the Wikipedia entry for the recently inaugurated minister of economy. The minister has numerous first names. The author invented yet another first name and many German news sites and newspapers published the wrong name.
