Here's the relevant text of the NYT "correction" on Kissinger's views.

The Aug. 16 article described Mr. Kissinger's expressed concerns about the need for building an international coalition before waging war and his doubts about the Bush administration's plan to make "regime change" the center pole of its policy. But it should have made a clearer distinction between his views and those of Mr. Scowcroft and other Republicans with more categorical objections to a military attack. The second article listed Mr. Kissinger incorrectly among Republicans who were warning outright against a war.

That's it. The sliced the salami so thinly you could see through it. Hell's bells, I think the "correction" is newsworthy, but the NYT buried it in the "Corrections"
section, under a correction on a typo in the Lionel Hampton story.

You'll never see a major newspaper admit to a misrepresentation, i.e., a lie, though the NYT's characterization of Kissinger's views was clearly a lie.
