I was going to tag this into the comments at my "Sex Slavery?" entry, but I think it's good enough to go into its own entry. Dan Damon, the public information officer of Plainfield, NJ, sent me a bunch of blog entries responding to Peter Landesman's sex slavery series. What's particularly entertaining about the exchanges with the editor is the total cluelessness on the editor's part that there might be something wrong with the portrayal: "If you see a trend of anti-New Jersey reporting, please send us a message citing bias in a specific article."
Uhhh... Yeah, they were specifically complaining about the treatment of one town, but in general it was more about a reporter spinning tales out of his ass and portarying them as if they were part of some vast international conspiracy.
