NY Times Correction(s) Du Jour

Think they're anxious to keep the Abu Ghraib story and theme all over the place? So anxious, it seems, they're rushing pieces into print without getting all the facts straight. A lot of pieces. This is just from today:

Because of an editing error, an article on Page 24 of The Times Magazine today about the photographs of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib renders a word incorrectly in a sentence about sexual images. The sentence should read, "An erotic life is, for more and more people, that which can be captured in digital photographs and on video" — not "that whither."

And:

Because of an editing error, a picture caption last Sunday about ghoulish images of war misstated the date of an execution in Europe. It was 1268. (The image was painted around 1860.)

And:

Two cartoons last Sunday carried erroneous credits. One, about two men commenting on the United States response to the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, was by Clement, not by Ben Sargent. The other, about the Iraqi response to the American invasion, was by Mike Luckovich, not by Clement.
