"O'Reilly Apologizes!

After 329 days, Bill O'Reilly finally apologized for helping to mislead the nation into war. On March 18, 2003, O'Reilly told ABC's Good Morning America:

'If the Americans go in and overthrow Saddam Hussein and it's clean, he has [no WMD], I will apologize to the nation, and I will not trust the Bush administration again, all right?'

On February 10, 2004, O'Reilly returned to Good Morning America proved himself to be a man of his word. He said 'Well, my analysis was wrong and I'm sorry. And I'm not pleased about it.' And then he continued, 'I was wrong. I'm not pleased about it at all. And I think all Americans should be concerned about this... I am much more skeptical of the Bush administration now.'"

Many-to-Many: Stowe Boyd on Wikis
"…Wikis are built upon an inherently open model of social interaction and collaboration, with very little constraint placed on the participants. In a sense, this puts the onus back on the members of a project group to self-police: to build structure out of the minimalist forms of Wiki components, to correct others’ grammar, syntax and wrong-headed arguments, to cajole others to your viewpoint or ideas where the project should be headed. But it’s exactly this frisson between partners, affiliated around shared purpose, that builds social ties and generates social capital. Wikis directly support us in our efforts to get more from the whole than the sum of the parts."

"K.C. Church: No Straight Weddings
The congregation of Trinity United Methodist Church in Kansas City, Missouri voted overwhelmingly to no longer perform weddings for straight couples as long as a church rule forbids such ceremonies for gay couples, the Associated Press reported. Rev. Sally Haynes, the pastor, said that this will allow the church to treat all parishioners equally, 30-40 percent of whom are gay or lesbian. The local bishop, Ann Sherer, said she supported the church’s right to make “worship decisions” and praised Trinity’s outreach to underserved populations."
