From the supplier: The spring/summer special edition of Newsweek magazine recommending infants could feed themselves toast and vegetables had to be recalled and reprinted due to decreased efforts in fact-checking. In the fall of 1996, Newsweek turned over fact-checking to researcher-reporters and part-time staff, leaving a large part of the periodical to be "author-checked." Many national publications are relaxing standard due to budgetary restrictions, which some journalists regard as an unnecessarily large risk.
