…tune into “Day by Day,” the mid-day “news” magazine from NPR and Slate magazine. Dear lord, I accidentally had the pitiful soundbyte-regurging excuse for a news program on and heard their corrections slot. You know, where most dignified programs admit to and correct their errors? These people use “Bad to the Bone” as their theme, and make jokes about the mistakes they make.

Clearly, we wouldn’t want to worry about something as silly as correcting our errors, so why should we take anything else seriously? Yeah, let’s make fun of the fact that we may have harmed people by not bothering to research our facts.

“Like, Hi! This is Morning Edition, I’m Tiffany, and it’s a TOTALLY knarly day!”

Bah.
