Eugene Linden in the Columbia Journalism Review, March 5, 2024, observes that recent Supreme Court decisions are based on flawed data that could have been corrected had there been vigorous local reporting on the issue. Linden cites several instances including the lawsuit to overturn President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan. At the time, to establish standing, Missouri’s attorney general claimed the plan would hurt a local nonprofit group servicing student loans. Actually the group opposed the lawsuit and would suffer no monetary losses.
