Standards of journalism

Interesting to note that the lack of attention to facts for which the SCMP is lambasted is part of the Hong Kong heritage and not a recent thing at all.

Either that or some great natural disaster knocked Victoria Gap down from 3000 feet to its current 1300 feet or so.

re: Standards of journalism

Yes, never let the facts get in the way of a good story! I've got another good example of creative journalism in the queue of things to scan and post.
