The Los Angeles Times has fired reporter Eric Slater over a "flawed" (read: full of lies, including "the" and "and") article on the death of a Chico State student in a hazing incident.

If you read between the lines on all of the corrections that have been made to the story, it appears as though Slater never even went to Chico to do any reporting and made quotes out of whole cloth to suit his narrative.

Journalism. Wound. Self-inflicted.
