Dang, I wish I was there. You will never hear any of them admit an error or bad reporting -- they know full well that they have libel risk if they admit they got the story wrong. For example, the N&O buried material information. Did they act with malice and in reckless disregard of the truth? Perhaps, but they will never admit they were wrong or mistaken. That will have to be proven in court. Some folks (like Nancy Grace) may have greater exposure because of their way over the top presumptions and now are nervous at how this all turns out. What they will do is pee all over Nifong, so that if they wer edead wrong they will cite Nifong as the reason. THe press is not exactly known for being a bunch of stand up people.

I wish you were there too. They wouldn't say it out loud, but the whole implicit premise of the meeting was "how did the media manage to screw the pooch so badly on this one".
