They get people killed and then just issue some half assed whoops kind of apology. I don't know how, because I do believe in freedom of the press, but some way some how we need to hold these SOB's responsible for shit like this. At least with Blather trying to alter the outcome of a National election all he truly did was make it obvious what a worthless partisan hack he has always been. This editor and writer got people killed and whoops doesn't make it with me.

The GOP needs to have assign a camera crew to follow Howard Dean around and record his every utterance. Dean rips DeLay at convention May 15, 2005 Howard Dean, chairman of the Democratic National Party, said yesterday that the US House majority leader, Tom DeLay, 'ought to go back to Houston where he can serve his jail sentence," referring to allegations of unethical conduct against the Republican leader. Dean's remark, in a speech to Massachusetts Democrats at their party convention, drew an immediate rebuke from US Representative Barney Frank, the Newton Democrat and one of DeLay's harshest critics. 'That's just wrong," Frank said in an interview on the convention floor. 'I think Howard Dean was out of line talking about DeLay. The man has not been indicted. I don't like him, I disagree with some of what he does, but I don't think you, in a political speech, talk about a man as a criminal or his jail sentence." DeLay faces accusations he may have violated House rules by taking foreign trips paid for by lobbyists. In a separate case, a Texas grand jury indicted three fund-raisers with ties to DeLay on accusations of campaign-finance irregularities. Dean, the former Vermont governor, lost his bid for the Democratic nomination to Senator John F. Kerry. RAPHAEL LEWIS AND FRANK PHILLIPS boston.com

They didn't even have the internal fortitude to withdraw the story. If you read their reply closely all they actual admitted was "we regret that we got any part of our story wrong, and extend our sympathies to victims of the violence and to the U.S. soldiers caught in its midst." So which part did they get wrong and which part is still right? Was it a grammatical error or a chronological error or what? I've heard as many as 15 people died in the Newsweek riots but hey they were able to get out a issue with the mandatory anti-military, anti-American rumor so how bad could their actions have been anyway? - Rick
