In the servile rush to defend every big institution, it might help to consider that publishing about a criminal investigation, while simultaneously writing in the same item about an employee’s administrative suspension, can leave an innocent employee looking like a criminal suspect.
Following up with a ‘clarification’ a day afterward is better than no follow-up, but it still leaves a publisher mired in misleading reporting.
Conflating stories of administrative and criminal actions is a bush-league mistake, and is simply evidence of poor judgment.
Writing deserves more care than that.
