The White House was forced to retreat
I don't know if I did this right, this story needs legs!

But if you're a New York Times reader, you didn't get wind of this news unless you found your way to a two-column story at the bottom of page A22, where Matthew L. Wald writes that "the President was probably wrong" when he said that American forces had found blueprints for American nuclear power plants in Al Qaeda strongholds in Afghanistan.

Not only does the Times bury the story on the A-section's third-to-last page, it buries it a second time with a headline that seems to miss the point: "Nuclear Official Says Bush Erred on Details of Threat to Reactors."

The story here:

1. Thanks. This needs to be added to the list of
lies and exaggerations this admin uses as scare tactics.

They have no shame.
