In The New York Times, there is a casual distance between story and truth

writer of this article says a number of wrong things, including confusing the 1994 Northridge earthquake for the 1992 Landers earthquake.  Easy to get a fact wrong, I do it every day, but it’s pretty funny to pair it with a cliché about how people in the desert are always making up stuff.
