"The phrase "journalism is literature in a hurry" was coined by the British poet and critic Matthew Arnold (1822ā1888). It suggests that while journalism, like literature, is a form of writing with artistic elements, it operates under intense time constraints. The speed and expediency required for daily or timely reporting often mean that journalistic writing prioritizes quick production, potentially at the expense of depth and quality that might be found in more leisurely-produced literature.
Appreciate the catch (correction made). This blog is written every day after sitting 8 hours in court without access to electronics. Often edited in the middle of the night! We will always strive to do better, but this is not a reflection of Jerry's fastidious reporting. -Lee (deputy editor)
Thanks. I was a reporter and a copy-editor, so I understand that time is of the essence. I hope at least one set of eyes can check a finished piece, after the reporter him/herself gives it one last perusal. Finally, I appreciate this coverage and salute you all.
The excitement is building!

An insightful comment. I, too, am enraged by a typo in a 1700+ word article.
Guess whether the piece is edited.
I understood it. Which for journalism, is the goal, above and beyond perfect typing out perfect grammar.
