OK, so I misspelled Brodhead. I got the first name right.
LOL - now that was clever!

But the errors do matter, beyond a stickler's point for journalistic accuracy. The Times, the supposed paper of record, went out of its way to inaccurately frame the case against Seligmann, and then either left the record uncorrected or printed a correction that was misleading in and of itself. As Abrams would say, "shameful" behavior.

Perhaps, after all this is over and done, the Seligmann family should sue New York Times. That may teach NYT how to handle similar inaccuracies in the future. I would certainly do it, if it was my son who was being framed by these NYT clowns.

Once this horror show ends, there are going to be all kinds of payback. Wilson and Glater should realize the internet never forgets.
