http://www.cjr.org/first_person/misinformation_and_misconceptions_how_not_to_report_on_the_encryption_debate.php?page=all
RARELY HAS A PUBLIC DEBATE been ignited so fast as the

coverage of such a debate been so lacking in facts--especially
considering that encryption is a tool reporters increasingly
need to do their jobs.
