The NYT Gets It Wrong 

Last week, I had made a post about Ali Shalal Qaissi, who according to the New York Times was the hooded and wired prisoner that came to represent the Abu Ghraib prison scandal. On Saturday, the Times corrected itself and admitted that they got the Qaissi story wrong, something Salon had alleged from Monday night, when the NYT story first ran. I have linked to all the stories, so you can come to your own conclusion. I suppose I should apologize for not having linked to the Salon story earlier. To paraphrase God's Final Message to His Creation, I apologize for the inconvenience!
