The NY Times is going down
I bet that got Bill Clinton's attention.
Due to the extraordinary fact-checking process at the paper of record - oops. Seems more like "whatcha got that makes ChimpyHilter look bad?". Turns out the hooded dude of Abu Ghraib fame, is not the guy that's been going around claiming - hey that's me!
Michelle Malkin has the story and several links to reaction here. Just a sample, go read it all:
The New York Times acknowledged in Saturday's editions that it incorrectly identified an Iraqi man in a front-page story as the hooded figure shown in a photograph from Abu Ghraib prison that became an icon of abuse by American captors.
An editor's note accompanying a front-page story on Ali Shalal Qaissi said the paper ''did not adequately research Mr. Qaissi's insistence that he was the man in the photograph.''
She has a graph of the NY Times stock price going down, and hitting it's lowest point since 1998. This decline was also noted in December here.
