USA Today Gets It Wrong, Posted by Dick
Last week, in my entry “Why Settle with the DOJ,” I explained the facts about our settlement agreement. Obviously, USA Today failed to read our news release or visit our web site, www.realtor.org/DOJ, and get all the facts BEFORE commenting on the news.
The May 29th editorial, “One bright sign emerges in a gloomy housing market,” included many inaccuracies and blatantly misinterpreted our settlement agreement with the Department of Justice. Last Friday we sent a letter to the editor, asking for both a correction and an apology. As of today, we have not received a response.
Download the letter here. I encourage you to read it, and then share your views with USA Today readers by leaving a comment at the bottom of the story page: http://blogs.usatoday.com/oped/2008/05/one-bright-sign.html. – Dick Gaylord, 2008 NAR President
