It's in the Wash. Post folks. I SAW the article and that was the exact wording, as the C-Span guy was reading the paragraph.

I don't have the Wash. Post and I'm too lazy to find the article at their site but... I wonder if their online edition made the correction...

Should this be marked as breaking (or maybe broken) news?
To: A Vast RightWing Conspirator
He'll have to pay extra for that.

It's in The Reliable Source, by Lloyd Grove for 4/24/03, and it says:
Unintentional Exuberance
We initially refused to believe an alert ABC News fan who told us that the closed captions for the 6:30 p.m. Tuesday feed of Peter Jennings's "World News Tonight" informed viewers that Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan was "in the hospital for an enlarged prostitute."
But yesterday a network spokeswoman confirmed the wording -- provided by ABC's Pennsylvania-based closed-captioning contractor. Apparently the typist hit the wrong key, or keys. The glitch was fixed for the 7 p.m. feed.
"We strive for perfection," ABC's Cathie Levine told us, "but when you're typing that fast, there are occasional mistakes. We regret the error."
Greenspan was home recovering yesterday from prostate surgery, said his wife, NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell. As for that "enlarged prostitute," Mitchell told us: "He should be so lucky."
Admin Moderator: If this is too much quoting, take it down. FYI: the source is http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A28307-2003Apr24.html
