Schwanksta :: Fuzzy Journalism

Not me personally, of course; I actually sort of like public records (yeah, I know, make fun of me).

One of my classmates, however, was annoyed enough with our fact finding assignment on the book “Until Proven Innocent: Political Correctness and the Shameful Injustices of the Duke Lacrosse Rape Case” that he or she posted a short rant on angryjournalist, a new blog where the beleaguered members of my chosen profession can bitch:

Angry Journalist #414:

I HATE FACT FINDING. I hate book reports. We know they screwed up the Duke Lacrosse case. Let’s not beat a dead horse.?I also hate MLA format. Who the fuck needs a works cited? Seriously? like, what the fuck? Who cares? It’s freaken fact-finding — like we’re going to try and forge our sources with a lady who spends her waking hours finding facts.

I agree though, wanting standard works cited page was weird for an assignment in j-school…I got around it by, um, not following directions.
