He gone... Again.
So apparently he did not resign from the AJC. I saw an article and a few tweets that said he did, but I guess I did about as much research as he did on his articles. Like Mr. Judd, I will not accept any responsibilities for what I wrote.
Interesting. I've read that he resigned voluntarily and I've read he was forced to resign, but, it's neither?
I think the authorship of those tweets or articles were referring to his resignation from the Louisville Courier....one I had to read a couple of times to realize that as the headline was a little misleading.
As @ForestryDawg said, he has not, as of yet, resigned from the ajc
Ditto, poorly worded titles.
alan Judd gone too
all y’all can come back now
Was just about to post it; glad the AJC actually held its journalist responsible. I want my university to stand up to scrutiny, but this article was not right ethically.
The response letter from AJC is weak as hell though.
Yeah it was. They should’ve apologized to Jamaal Jarrett specifically, not just the “university.” I can’t say I’m surprised that Judd got fired. As a former journalist with a degree from Grady myself; his work was not good. His writing wasn’t that bad, but when I worked in TV I would’ve been fired for allegations that couldn’t be backed up.
I think you still go after them for damages and for not firing disciplining whoever the copy editory/fact checking manager is. It was a half measure on their part and by trying to keep the 'rallying' headline still misleading. The 2 they cite were actually handled so not sure if they are saying guys showing up for a character witness bond hearing is rallying but that is also a stretch. The damage done to JJ a minor is still out of context and the other guy is off the team. So where are the 2 'rallying' examples?
Go for damages, more personnel punishment and a better retraction.
Yep, I felt the corrected story was wimpish at best. It left the reader with the idea that there may not have been 11 players left on the roster, but there were some still allowed to play. Which to me, is wrong as hell.
I don’t think the UGA lawyers will take further action. I agree with you, but firing the reporter is the bigger action, and they’re the “face” of the story. I don’t know how print works as far as editing/fact checking.
Okay. I’ve only been doing part time boarding lately. I guess I’ll come back full time…
…and Alan Judd has been FIRED!!!
Even the AJC knows when it’s time to fold the hand!!!!
