Truth.
To Vox’s credit, there is this:
@eriContrarian @GPollowitz It's hard to be wrong that often, even on purpose. Looking at you, @voxdotcom.

Kudos! Heck of a job, guys!
What a day for Team Vox. RT @GPollowitz: Another bang-up job @voxdotcom https://t.co/uwore69w5R"

Twitchy readers know about the “bad day” a Vox-er was having earlier. But this latest screw-up takes the media malpractice cake.
What happened now? Oh, just this:
Another bang-up job @voxdotcom https://t.co/IqLFWE7UoJ

CORRECTION: In new video, John Crawford appears to have been shot before dropping the toy rifle: http://t.co/J9TOCN90N2.

Wait, what? Before dropping it? The original headline:
Video: John Crawford dropped toy gun before he was killed by police in Walmart http://t.co/YEuT9TVFOl via @voxdotcom

This is… Jesus. This was murder: http://t.co/M8npTvtC8G

Oops, never mind, people: That whole “dropped the gun” thing? Just kidding!
A guy is dead, a potential Fed indictment against the cops and @voxdotcom couldn't bother to read a few wire reports b4 writing its piece

Egregious.
@redsteeze @voxdotcom In which ignorant VoxBoxers explain the facts they don't know and the legal terrain they don't understand. @DLind

@GPollowitz @instapundit why do that when it's way easier to just write what you want to have happened? @voxdotcom

@GPollowitz @voxdotcom Narrative over news.

Yep. It’s Vox. Enough said.
Are there any Vox stories that don't have a correction? https://t.co/5U1MqBUz0p #ExplanatoryJournalism

Heh.

And an exit suggestion:
@voxdotcom @instapundit At this point Vox should launch a sister site just for Vox corrections.
