NY Times Issues Major Correction: Lieberman Did Say "Stay The Course"...Six Times...

Senator Joseph I. Lieberman has used the phrase "stay the course" several times in discussing the war in Iraq in recent years, echoing a key phrase of the White House, contrary to an article published today in The Times.

The article used a database to analyze hundreds of Mr. Lieberman's war-related comments since 2001. It pointed out that Ned Lamont, the Democratic nominee for United States Senate, frequently criticized Mr. Lieberman for being a strong supporter of the Bush Administration's "stay the course" policy on Iraq, and said that in the statements reviewed the senator never actually uttered that phrase.
