NPR’s ‘Alito Retiring’ Retraction Raises Question: What About All the Other Erroneous Stories It Hasn’t Retracted?

NPR has retracted its story claiming that Justice Alito is retiring, replacing it with an editor’s note explaining that the story “was published in error.”The coming days will disclose whether the error was publishing it a few days too soon or publishing it at all. NPR attributed it to “a misunderstanding” by 82-year-old Nina Totenberg, who has been at NPR for half a century. Either way, at least in this situation NPR editors publicly acknowledged an error and took the story down. That’s more than they’ve done for hundreds of other articles that are similarly erroneous but, alas, remain unretracted and without editor’s notes on NPR websites and audio platforms.
