Beyond what is alleged in this thread, the article on your website is false on its face. The White House admitting that something was shown to be untrue does not in any way shape or form mean that the White House admits Bush lied. As a matter of fact, the White House categorally denies lying. Your article lies.

In retrospect, you and others here make a valid point. The headline is technically incorrect because the White House made no such admission. I have edited the headline and the lead of the story to reflect that.

I have edited the headline and the lead of the story to reflect that.It was an irresponsible thing to do in the first place, not unlike the nasty piece you wrote on President Bush a few months ago and ended up having to apologize for.
I think you have a big, fat agenda.
To: Doug Thompson
That is good to hear, although it does not do much for your credibility that you personally made such a poor editorial decision in the first place. Credibility is important to someone in your position, especially if you want people to take your word on a source.
Which brings back up the other part of my post. It would be very nice to have some way to verify any part of what Terry said. Names, dates, anything that can be used beyond the word of a personal friend who has already admitted to distorting the truth deliberately (that would be you).

I have read your defense of your headline on this forum...and on your forum. I am curious, WHY would you edit the headline at THIS point? Not that I don't think you made the right decision, but it seems like you took an "unofficial" opinion poll, and have deigned to make the change.

Really now...... seems the lead paragraph is still the same
After weeks of denial, the White House Monday finally admitted President Bush lied in his January State of the Union Address when he claimed Iraq had sought significant quantities of uranium in Africa.
