One of the biggest problems with the payday advance debate is that too many reporters don’t do their homework and wind up getting their facts wrong.  Your Payday Pundit is pleased to see that there are still some newsies out there who take journalistic accuracy seriously and gives kudos to the Birmingham (AL) News for doing the right thing with this correction:

Your Payday Pundit particularly loves this line from the correction:

The editorial should not have criticized the payday-loan industry for these practices.”
