Boston Globe
New York Times executive editor Bill Keller says the paper's pre-war WMD coverage "has become a distraction that just wouldn't go away. We just needed to kind of clear the air." He says of Wednesday's "The Times and Iraq" editors' note: "I don't see this as an apology. I see this as an explanation. It's not a note that's going to satisfy our most bloodthirsty critics." CJR executive editor Michael Hoyt tells Mark Jurkowitz: "It's a big deal that they came clean. ... I think it's a bigger deal than Jayson Blair, because it involved a rationale for war."
