New York Times Corrects Calling Palestinian Payments to Terrorists "Far-Right Conspiracy"
(Algemeiner) Ira Stoll - The New York Times has issued a correction backing down from a claim that reporting about Palestinian payments to families of terrorists is "far-right conspiracy programming." In the correction, the Times wrote that its original article "erroneously included a reference to Palestinian actions as an example of the sort of far-right conspiracy stories that have plagued Facebook. In fact, Palestinian officials have acknowledged providing payments to the families of Palestinians killed while carrying out attacks on Israelis or convicted of terrorist acts and imprisoned in Israel; that is not a conspiracy theory."
