Ok, I am not going to dispute when Chris Reeves did or did not slip into a coma (nor when he suffered cardiac arrest).

I thought Chris Reeves was a good actor and I admired his fighting to the end. I disagreed with his aggressive position on the stem-cell issue and his criticisms of the Bush administration for not doing more when...

1. the President did more for stem-cell research than any other president, ever
2. there has been $250 million in private funding that has been invested in private stem cell research and made some progress, and
3. given that we recently watched a private endeavor reach sub-orbital space, I don't want to hear that the private sector doesn't cut it when it comes to advances in science or technology

BUT...

What I do have is screen captures of the INITIAL WHOTV report and the REVISED WHOTV report.

Here's the initial web page report:

Here's the revised web page report:

To capture the screens, I used a product called Snag-It (v7.1) made by TechSmith (Product Link). I captured the entire page (scrolling) so you can see any and all notations, in context. There are no qualifications that state "This page was updated" or "Updated, please refer here [with "here"] being a link] to view original".

Also, in the auditing interests, you can download a video of my screens (with 1 Firefox tab with the initial report and 1 Firefox tab with the revised report). Right-click here to download.

AND...

...I will only add one small quip. Please note the copyright notification at the bottom of each screen

And, who has the New York Times endorsed and supported throughout this political season?

Guess they can't embarass their candidate.

great find!

Yep... they changed history to fit Kerry's story, when they realized he'd goofed.

Great catch! I saw the second page this AM and was searching for the reference to Thursday. Now I know why I could not find it.

But that's the whole point of this blog story, that Reeve was in a coma when Kerry said he got the call.

Sorry that's too much tinfoil look at the links I posted at #155. There are no other sources that put Reeve in a coma on Thursday and almost 900 that do on Saturday. Does the New York Times own all 900?

Occam's razor says that WHO got it wrong and has corrected their error. They should acknowledge it though.
