I’ll also add that most of the heat should be directed at USA Today, but the journalists who participated in this breach of ethics also made a choice. Organizations are made up of people. We can’t absolve the people who do harm on the behalf of an organization.

Similarly, people think improv acting is about coming up with strange and humorous situations but it's really about the relationships between characters and how that comes out as play

Why does this rhyme with Battlestar Galactics
