Iraq: The N.Y. Times Blows It Yet Again

The error-prone New York Times reported last week that 30 beheaded bodies had been found in and near Baghdad. When that reported turned out to be inaccurate, the Times ran a "stealth" correction deep in a marginally related story, stating that
Earlier reports of 30 beheaded bodies found in that area were wrong, [an] Interior Ministry official said.
Bad. Very bad.
