New York Times Lies Again
The Public Editor
Truth, Justice, Abortion and the Times Magazine
By BYRON CALAME
Published: December 31, 2006
THE cover story on abortion in El Salvador in The New York Times Magazine on April 9 contained prominent references to an attention-grabbing fact. “A few” women, the first paragraph indicated, were serving 30-year jail terms for having had abortions. That reference included a young woman named Carmen Climaco. The article concluded with a dramatic account of how Ms. Climaco received the sentence after her pregnancy had been aborted after 18 weeks.

It turns out, however, that trial testimony convinced a court in 2002 that Ms. Climaco’s pregnancy had resulted in a full-term live birth, and that she had strangled the “recently born.” A three-judge panel found her guilty of “aggravated homicide,” a fact the article noted. But without bothering to check the court document containing the panel’s findings and ruling, the article’s author, Jack Hitt, a freelancer, suggested that the “truth” was different.

How flattering. I see you are obsessed with me. We had another guy called "Alias Killer" who came here to do me in. He lasted about 2 days. Go for it. If you try to do me in, you will only end up making a bigger fool of yourself than you already have.

This is really cute.

Obviously Alias has an internet stalker. I can only imagine what other kind of creepy things Trista does. ...no wait a minute, I don't have to imagine. I think we already know.

How thweet!

Er...ummm, maybe for yours, TR?

I mean, what the heck, why do you come here now to stir the pot on this thread? Why don't you just debate, and maybe even try to make some friends here?
