Magazines are famous for having teams of fact-checkers who strive to verify everything their publication prints. Book publishers, however, generally make no such effort, Kate Newman writes for Atlantic: "What many readers don’t realize is that fact-checking has never been standard practice in the book-publishing world at all. And reliance on books creates a weak link in the chain of media accuracy, says Scott Rosenberg, founder of the now-defunct MediaBugs.org."
