Thoughtful response to my column questioning NYT's apology for referring to Michael Brown as "no angel." http://www.latimes.com/opinion/opinion-la/la-ol-ferguson-michael-brown-no-angel-blowback-20140829-story.html …
@MichaelMcGough3 If it's true that nobody is an "angel," why even note that in an article? NYT was rightly contrite, I think.

@mtracey Big irony: "No angel" seemed an attempt to mitigate/context negative info (esp. robbery) that couldn't be ignored. It backfired. -
@MichaelMcGough3 Yes. I'd blame the editor for that more than the reporter.
