Joel Mowbray reports: The AP issues a correction

Joel Mowbray ([email protected]) folllows up on his most recent post concerning the erroneous AP story that Joel called on the AP to correct:

Even the best reporters can make mistakes.
I had pointed out an error that the AP had made in an earlier post here, and sure enough the AP has issued a correction here.
In hindsight, I was probably too tough on the reporter who made the mistake. It was a pretty grevious error, but that should have been my cue that it was
unintentional.

Joel writes that he has several more follow-ups that he will be filing with us concerning his March 5 page-one Washingon Times story on American financial aid going to two Palestinian universities friendly to terrorism.
