Newspaper Correction Of The Year: The New Jersey Rabbis

by | 23rd, November 2009

corectionTHOSE New Jersey rabbis who laundered money and aold body parts to before politcos – well, it’s wrong: The New York Times was almost right:

“An article on Oct. 25 about the recent governor’s race in New Jersey misidentified the illegal activity that some Sephardic rabbis had been accused of and that the article characterized as part of the state’s infamous corruption. The rabbis were charged with money laundering, not with selling body parts and then using the money to bribe politicians. (There was a Brooklyn man accused of conspiring to broker the sale of a kidney, and several New Jersey politicians accused of corruption, all of whom were arrested the same day as the rabbis.)”

Not too bad an effort at reporting from the world’s biggerst newspaper brand…
