The first Headline/link is from the TOP of their Homepage, and the second Headline/link is from the actual piece. I hate that I'm tooting my own horn, but I'm just Very excited about this.)

Media roundup: Herald Tribune edits out Bolton; Post headline errs with 'Liddy'

John Byrne

An article regarding the Bush Administration’s role in the outing of a covert CIA operative published in Saturday’s International Herald Tribune deleted references to John R. Bolton that appeared in the New York Times edition of the same article, RAW STORY has learned.

The Tribune article omitted the final five paragraphs of the piece which referenced President Bush’s nominee to be ambassador to the United Nations. Those paragraphs follow....

...The Times’ reporters on the article, David Johnston, Richard Stevenson, Douglas Jehl and Anne Kornblut did not respond to a RAW STORY request for comment.

The New York Times Company’s Herald Tribune often abbreviates articles that appear in the Times, their flagship newspaper.

The omission was first discovered by a member of the liberal forum Democratic Underground. :hi:

Considering the stupor of so many Americans, I'm proud that it took a DUer...you...to catch the error.

4. Thanks, I hope a lot of people see the story at RAW and...

... maybe start asking a few more questions. How many daily readers do you figure they get?

If nothing else, it might be good for traffic or our reputation here at DU.
