NY Times serves a dilly with its dally

last night's correction attempt by chris matthews may have been lame, at least it was done somewhat promptly.

the new york times is a full day late in its own correction (probably a date sensitive link), as fnc's brit hume noted yesterday and ldotters skewer today.

and the 'dog ate my homework' excuse is great

Although Mr. Fitzgerald formally filed his corrective yesterday, accounts of it were provided to some news organizations on Tuesday night, and were the basis for news articles yesterday. The Times did not publish one, as other organizations did, because a telephone message and an e-mail message about the court filing went unnoticed at the newspaper. An article on the filing appears today, on Page A17.
