On the old board, I started a thread on the lead story in the NYT Sunday Magazine for March 18th. The story topic was on rapes and assaults on women soldiers in Iraq. The cover pictured a returned woman soldier in fatigues, whose personal story was the hook for the larger story. On Fox News, there is a story on this coverage which points out the woman interviewed was actually never in Iraq. The NYT published a retraction the next week. Fox alleges the editors new before publication day, but after the magazine had been printed, that the story was untrue but ran the magazine as is. Check the link below: My Word for 3/27, "Black Eye for New York Times." I suspect there will be more on this story later. Edited to note that Gary moved the thread from "General" to this forum under "Major mistakes...." I have included some additional links in that thread.
