"Mr [Jayson] Blair is back" Karen Brown Dunlap escreve no Poynter.org sobre o regresso de Jayson Blair à ribalta, a propósito do livro em que conta a sua versao do caso e que é lançado amanha nos EUA: "(...)I'm livid that a writer, who could have achieved so much, chose to violate a journalistic trust. (...) I'm angry that his acts undercut efforts to build news media credibility, including acts by thousands of journalists who perform their work honorably each day. (...) I'm angry that race plays all around and through this story. Some say being black helped Blair rise at The New York Times. (...) Most of all, I'm furious that instead of fading from the spotlight to reflect and reform, Mr. Blair is back, positioned to make money from his dishonorable conduct. In that respect he's not alone." E uma revelaçao: Jayson Blair foi um dos participantes num seminário organizado em tempos pelo Poynter Institute - imagine-se sobre o quê!?: "Ethics and Leadership for College Editors and News Directors". Igualmente interessante: Karen Brown Dunlap decidiu aceitar o convite para participar hoje no programa da NBC "Dateline", que constitui o primeiro acto das operaçoes de promoçao do livro de Blair e em que ele próprio se explicará em antena. Explicaçoes da pópria: "I'm encouraged because they've asked good questions, and sought a range of voices. Maybe they'll use the segment to explore new angles. After all, Jayson's is a story that has been told; there are so many more significant stories to tell. I hope they'll spotlight journalists who spend their careers building communities instead of one who speaks of burning down."
