The continuing humor of the New York Times correction page

Here's a good one today:

An article on Tuesday included an erroneous phrase supplied in a Pentagon transcript of remarks by Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld about people who compare the attacks against American troops in Iraq to guerrilla tactics used in the Vietnam war. The secretary criticized "press people" for drawing the comparison, not "oppressed people."

I thought they fired Jayson Blair...
