The gate keepers’ lament

Columbia University, denying an Iranian report that some professors are enroute to Tehran to apologize to Mahmoud-the-mad for insults on his recent New York visit, includes an interesting little slap:

"We ask that a clarification be added….and that verification of the facts even during the era of Google’s news value-neutral, digital age continues to be warranted."

Ah, yes, let’s bemoan the end of the days when the gatekeepers got to decide "news value." Boo hoo.
