while checking for any discrepancies, i found that very small fine print at the end of the article. The article doesn’t mention anything about corrections or updates though.
patrick healy has a long history of questionable interpretations of events:

Oh, that goddamned super-liberal socialist lefty rag the New York Times. If they didn’t correct or apologize for the probably 20,000,000 words they wrote about the worthless nothingburger called “Whitewater” during the '90s, why does anyone expect these lying, cheating fucks to act any differently now?
BTW, when you are done “correcting” your mistake, NYT - probably in the same way that the AP “corrected” their fabulist concoction about the Clinton Foundation, which is to say not admitting that they ever made a mistake in the first place - perhaps you could start rewriting every Maureen Dowd column she has written over the past 25 years. Or better yet, just post this headline instead:
“Maureen Dowd Finally Realizes She Will Never Have Sex With Bill Clinton. No Marijuana Edibles Involved.”
Nothing to see here folks.
The NYT, like all media, is obviously liberal.
Return to your normal duties.
Your leader has spoken.
In related news, Dewey beats Truman.
$$$$$$$$$.
What else?
Media would certainly like 4 years of the daily shenanigans and hijinks a Trump Presidency would deliver. They may not be overtly in the tank for him but in board rooms everywhere the income stream from eyes and ears glued to Trump’s various idiocies has to be enticing.
This article has all the earmarks of a review of a play or movie that the reviewer didn’t actually see or watch. It reads rather like a glowing review of the opening of a play that fails to note that the theater caught fire midway through the first act.
The NYT should make it a practice to check the BBC before going into print.
Politico has a report about his move to cover the election back in January. According to the Time’s statement, he isn’t entirely new to political reporting. He did work as a political correspondent for NY politics before, and once was reporting in Iraq/Afgan. Was also a reporter about higher education. Currently he is best known as a theater reporter.
He may be versatile enough to cover things all over the place, to put it positively. I don’t know what opinion he personally has about Hillary, but reading his pieces I see more a poor fit to the job.
I second this. Wow.
I am ashamed of the Gray Lady. She has shown herself to be an easily fooled whore. The New York Times has been in the tank for Trump the entire campaign cycle. Their personal hatred of Hillary has been obvious. Maybe they have now learned that they should actually report the real news on the front page and leave their biases on the editorial page.
These guys probably have a calendar on the wall.
First debate: “New, Presidential, Statesmanlike Trump”
As Digby put it the other day:
And with expectations so low for him he’s likely to be seen as a winner if he simply manages to resist talking about his penis. I have every expectation that Trump will be hailed by the press as being sober and thoughtful and magically transformed on the morning after the debate.
The Gray Lady aint’ what she used to be. The vaunted reputation they have had for more than 150 years is fast unraveling. Being first doesn’t mean being right. Quite the opposite.
A reporter who covers theater is writing political articles and botching the job.
One wonders just how seriously the NYT regards the whole Trump run for president.
They’re old hands at it. Still filthy with their complicity in the Iraq war.
The gang at the Times is breathlessly awaiting the latest Hillary smear job/hit piece…I mean Maureen Dowd’s column!
NYT has been trying hard to promote and endorse this idiot and seems they will now even lie to do so. What in the world has happened to the NYT. Got it, they now want to attack Hillary - but lying about that too!!! Who in the world are these “reporters” !!! What is going on there - at the Times??? “News NOT fit to print” !
You all knew that newspapers are written weeks in advance, right?
Where is the NYT cheerleader from yesterday. Newer member = forgot his nickname. I understand there are NYT diehards claiming they cover more than politics and while that may be true, isn’t it their job to be fair in their reporting on such an important matter as who becomes President of the United States. The one thing I am thankful for is that the people who read the NYT are pretty informed and intelligent people and can filter through the bullshit.
This story was not written in advance since no one knew it was happening until Tuesday
