THE NEW YORK TIMES GETS IT RIGHT

Today's corrections from The New York Times --

"... at the National Prayer Breakfast ... noting that 'we become absorbed with our abstract arguments, our ideological disputes, our contests for power,' (President Barack Obama ) went on to say, 'And in this Tower of Babel, we lose the sound of God's voice.' He did not say, 'this tower of babble.'

"An article on Friday ... referred incorrectly to the screen star Douglas Fairbanks. He was (Mary ) Pickford's second husband, not the first."

"An article on Thursday about the author Don DeLillo misidentified the maker of the manual typewriter he uses. It is an Olympia, not an Underwood."
