Forbes.com columnist Gary Weiss, who in the past has criticized Columbia Journalism Review Daily’s blog called “The Audit” that critiques business news, wrote Thursday that a recent item on the blog is a step in the right direction.

“The Audit would also give its credibility a boost if it cut out links to Judd Bagley’s BusinessJive and ‘FaulkingTruth’ websites, both of which sling mud at journalists while pushing the naked-shorting conspiracy theories that fascinated (former editor Mark) Mitchell.”
