	Jack Kelley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jack Kelley was a longtime USA Today correspondent and nominee for the Pulitzer Prize.
		In a sense, Kelley's fakery was more akin to that of Stephen Glass, in that both men fabricated compelling stories that drew national and political attention, rather than (as was chiefly the case for Blair) incidental facts.
		Kelley was also a faculty member of the World Journalism Institute, an organization dedicated to creating "Christian worldview journalists" who "accompany reporting with [...] a perspective committed to the final authority of the Bible as the inerrant written word of God".

	washingtonpost.com: USA Today Reporter Resigns Over Probe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Jack Kelley, a USA Today correspondent who has repeatedly risked his life in war zones around the world, resigned Tuesday after the paper's top editors questioned whether some of his stories were fabricated.
		Kelley, who reported that he was with an Israeli official 30 yards away, has said that he and the official had left the restaurant moments earlier and that the blast knocked them to their knees.
		Kelley, a University of Maryland graduate, began working for USA Today in 1982, the year the paper was launched, and by decade's end had been promoted to the national desk, where he drew attention for covering the scandal involving Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker.

	Online NewsHour \| Credibility in Question
		Jack Kelley, a Pulitzer Prize-finalist and star reporter with USA Today, resigned on Jan. 6, 2004, saying an ongoing investigation into his reporting had made the work environment at the nation's largest newspaper too hostile for him to continue.
		The investigation said that Kelley's questionable reporting dated back to at least 1991 and that despite numerous concerned comments from editors and reporters, his "star" status and perceived support from the highest echelon of the newspaper kept editors from thoroughly scrutinizing his work.
		Kelley also issued a statement focusing on the same investigation and remained defiant.

		Kelley apparently lifted material from other media and submitted expense accounts for his travels, including a $3,450 bill for paying an Arab journalist for assistance.

	USATODAY.com - Kelley issues apology as more fabrications emerge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Former USA TODAY foreign correspondent Jack Kelley fabricated and plagiarized stories for at least 12 years, often wrapping his own contrived accounts around the legitimate work of journalists from rival publications, a team of reporters examining his work has determined.
		Kelley, 43, resigned in January after he admitted conspiring with a translator to mislead editors overseeing an inquiry into his work.
		According to the story, Kelley witnessed an ambush, dodged gunfire by Serbian soldiers, watched from behind a rock as KLA soldiers — yards away — were maimed, and helped drag a dying soldier over the mountains to Macedonia.

		But Jack's believability slipped over the ledge for me this week when a team of USA Today investigators offered a boatload of evidence that he had made up substantial portions of at least eight major stories, plagiarized quotes from others and lied in speeches.
		In one Kelley story that was relayed in Christian circles, Jack tells about bumping into a Palestinian suicide bomber in a Jerusalem pizza parlor moments before the fellow blew himself up, killing several people.
		It would be simple to dismiss Jack as just another Jayson Blair or Stephen Glass- aberrant reporters who abandoned the truth when they were lured away by the desire for success and the glittering esteem of their readers and colleagues.

		Jack Kelley's resignation led to many wondering, if his reports were accurate than why should he resign as USA Today's 2002 Pulitzer Prize finalist reporter?
		The USA Today in all efforts reported that Kelley was at fault during the investigation, while the Washington Post in its hard news report quoting Kelley making him appear to be the victim.
		Kurtz also recognized Kelley as an "evangelical Christian" who said that he is in journalism because "God called [him] to proclaim the truth." This statement is a representation of Jack Kelley's vulnerability and humane ways never focused on by the USA Today.

		Kelley ripped open Curley's shirt, cradled his head and was about to administer mouth-to-mouth resuscitation when Curley came to, the victim merely of a fainting spell.

		Kelley, 43, resigned from the newspaper in January after he admitted conspiring with a translator to mislead editors overseeing an inquiry into his work.
		Kelley’s conduct represents “a sad and shameful betrayal of public trust,” former newspaper editors Bill Hilliard, Bill Kovach and John Seigenthaler said in a statement.

		Kelley, whose wearing of the green and larger-tnan-life bluster made him Detroit's Public Irishman No. 1 during two decades in office, was a skilled tradesman who never forgot his working-class roots.
		Kelley eventually admitted he was an alcoholic, and he gave up drinking in 1975.

		The paper said Kelley's "journalistic sins were sweeping and substantial." This story demonstrates the doubts that surrounded the reporter for years, and the depth of loyalty he inspired in some colleagues that possibly allowed his acts to go uncovered.
		Kelley implores that his lie was a one-time deal, a mistake made under pressure that has nothing to do with his stories, all of which he stands firmly behind.
		Though Kelley is 43 now and it's been more than 20 years since college, that teacher with the 18-things-for-an-A hasn't forgotten one of her favorite overachievers.

		Jack admitted that he made a mistake; he said he lied about the identity of a translator during the course of a seven-month investigation by USA Today.
		And if all of this proverbial dirt didn't bury Jack for good, USA Today actually said in a news story that, "In speeches to groups such as the Evangelical Press Association, Kelley talked of events that never occurred." There was no explanation, no attribution and no details.

		But unlike Blair, who mostly fabricated trivial facts, Kelley fabricated compelling stories that drew national and political attention, and flamed racial hatred and reinforced stereotypes.

		Kelley told friends up to the moment of the paper's announcement that he thought he was convincing the editors of his innocence.

		But what stands out in Kelley's phony oeuvre -- remarkable by any standard, with imagined Cuban refugees drowning by moonlight and multiple fake decapitations at a suicide-bombing in Jerusalem -- is the way he trafficked in particularly explosive stereotypes.

		Kelley was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for beat reporting in 2002, cited for his "wide-ranging and prescient reporting on centers of foreign terrorism, often conducted at personal risk."
