Scroll down to the picture of the girl with "W" hair. Right click on her picture. Look at the file name.

I went to the site, and found this annotation:

"A photograph accompanying this story, which ran on the Chronicle's Web site on Sept. 17, was given an inappropriate file name by one of the site’s copy editors. It came across as an editorial commentary on the subject, and such commentary has no place in our news coverage. The Chronicle regrets this error in judgment and apologizes to those offended by it."

I guess they had a few complaints, doncha know.

Good find. I thought the Chronicle was a pro-Bush paper, though.

You're kidding, right?

No prob. Fold your jammies twenty times for penance.

Wouldn't that leave him nekkid???!

I've been re-reading this thread, and although Buckhead's post #47 should be the premier exhibit, this one deserves to be in the hall of fame as well, just for the fact it was the fasted freep results in the history of Freeptopia.

Agreed, but we need to keep up the heat. Never let them think that we're not watching at all times.

The media must be made aware that as consumers of the product they put out, we'll not put up with their usual tactics anymore. They should fear us.
