A correction from Monday's New York Times:
[A]n article on Friday about Syria's intention to withdraw its troops from Lebanon paraphrased incorrectly from a comment by Imad Moustapha, Syrian ambassador to the United States, after he acknowledged that his country had used its influence to have pro-Syrian candidates offered for the Lebanese Parliament. He said Syria would stop that practice, not continue it.
"Paraphrased incorrectly?" Well, I suppose that sounds better than "we got it completely wrong."
