"On Tuesday, we ran a story headlined "White House admits Bush wrong about Iraqi nukes."
__________________________

That is not entirely the case. Now what was the original title of this article? "White House admits Bush lied about Iraqi nukes"

Exactly right Registered! I knew this sounded weak. I decided to read through the thread before pointing out the discrepancy in the original headline and the headline quoted in the apology.

I applaud Doug's efforts to come clean, but if you're going to come clean, do it. As a journalist your credibility is your livlihood. Using a questionable source is bad. Admitting is good. Trying to cover up just how far you took makes your credibility as questionable as his.

Exactly, terilyn.

Jumping in here to say that I deliberately did NOT read any article that said the President had LIED ... because I knew that statement would not be true. I've been rankled when I heard "Bush lied" coming from the mouth of Peter Jennings ... I've heard that statement all day. Since I'm beginning to get a picture of how this came about ... I cannot tell you how angry I am ...

Put your source our here for the FReepers, Doug ... and be thankful that there is this remarkable band of patriots who can sort out good from evil ...

Doug's credibilty has stunk for quite a qhile. This is his SECOND column, he's had to apologise for here.
