People generally make their own minds up in the end, usually on the basis of facts
And on the basis of accurately reported facts. If the Traverse City Record-Eagle had incorrectly reported on 2 November 2004 that a particular person had been sentenced to between 42 months and 14 years in prison but that person hadn't been, they'd have retracted the story by now. But they haven't.
And for some reason PAK keeps saying five years and asking how somebody sentenced to five years in November 2004 could have won an award for work that started in September 2008, entirely overlooking that September 2008 is more than 42 months after November 2004.
I would have presented facts that would prove they are wrong.
Were those facts also presented to the Traverse City Record-Eagle?
