This is like program trading on stock exchanges, only nobody’s equity position loses–just truth.

There is a syndicated error–Senate Majority Leader–in which publications misstate Senator Harry Reid’s (D-Nev.) position in his assembly of the U.S. national legislature.  While, at Gannett HQ in Washington, USA Today has it right, its property on the left coast–The Californian–has it wrong.

USA Today: “‘I really believe that the American people deserve better than what the Republicans in this building believe is the right thing,’ said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.”

The Californian:  “‘I really believe that the American people deserve better than what the Republicans in this building believe is the right thing,’ said Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.”

Despite total control within its walled garden, Gannett repeats its own error.
