Chicago Sun-Times? Oh man. Dude. I cannot believe you screwed that up so badly.
A reading list. Oof.
I am so pissed about this. A room full of journalists? Just yell, "Hey, anybody read any good books lately?" and start writing shit down!
Update: it was a syndicated piece from a freelancer. CST pledges greater transparency when it comes to local reporting (their focus) vs. syndication

Yeah. This is like that law journalist that livestreamed himself jerking off- level bad.
In my opinion, that's not as bad as this. I assume that was an accident. This was on purpose, and would take a miniscule amount of effort to varify.
Well both were brand-damaging.
More like, books people haven't written yet.
Let's Gooooo!
