No wonder liberals love the NYT as the "paper of record" - it's about as
truthful as they are...
12 of 13 W. Va. Miners Confirmed Dead

12 Miners Found Alive 41 Hours After Explosion (NTY)

===============================================
(following courtesy of Jim Alder:)
In 2003 a sociologist from Rutgers University named Ted Goertzel
wrote a paper in which he offered some insight into the psyche
of the left. Interesting reading:
In the 1970s, Stanley Rothman and Robert Lichter
administered Thematic Apperception Tests to a large sample of
"new left" radicals (Roots of Radicalism, 1982). They found that
activists were characterized by weakened self-esteem, injured
narcissism and paranoid tendencies. They were preoccupied with
power and attracted to radical ideologies that offered clear and
unambiguous answers to their questions. . . .
The unwillingness to offer alternatives reveals a lack of
self-confidence and self-esteem. If they offered their own
policy ideas they would be vulnerable to criticism. They would
run the risk that their ideas would fail, or would not seem
persuasive to others. This is especially difficult for anti-
capitalists after the fall of the Soviet Union. It has also been
difficult in the war against terrorism because Saddam Hussein
and Osama bin Laden are such unsympathetic figures.
Psychologically, it is easier to blame America for not finding a
solution than it is to put one's own ideas on the line.

hours later.

The Price for a Foolish War
Israeli Professor lecturing to the U.S. Naval College tells them the U.S.
must withdraw now from Iraq and that is the price of a foolish war:
"For misleading the American people, and launching the most foolish war
since Emperor Augustus in 9 B.C sent his legions into Germany and lost
them, Bush deserves to be impeached and, once he has been removed from
office, put on trial along with the rest of the president's men. If
convicted, they'll have plenty of time to mull over their sins."

What's your point? If they'd changed the main entry, you'd be
accusing them of trying to cover up the earlier error.

No, that would be what's known as a "correction" in the trade...

No, that would be what's known as a "correction" in the trade...

So, why did you not include the correction in your post, and then claim
that they "got it wrong"?

Because there WAS no correction at the time I originally posted this (which
was my point in the first place).
