And after the two posts here on the New York Times and "fracking" for natural gas, the Times's Public Editor took the issue up in a column over the weekend, siding with the critics: "such a pointed article needed more convincing substantiation, more space for a reasoned explanation of the other side and more clarity about its focus. ...the article went out on a limb, lacked an in-depth dissenting view in the text and should have made clear that shale gas had boomed." Richard L. Berke, the Times's national editor, defended the story: "we would not change a word."
