Excellent piece by Daniel Henninger on The Fabulous World of
Fact, Factoid and SARS
:

My impression is that most people find the story about Jayson Blair and the New York Times startling, but it doesn't shock them. It may be that after 25 years of post-modern history and humanities instruction, most people really do believe that events and news are mostly just a "narrative." From Michel Foucault to Jayson Blair to wherever this logic was headed -- the Iraqi information minister?
