What is it with the New York Times that it can't write about the Boy Scouts without making mistakes? (For earlier examples, please see here and here.)
Today's example comes in the latest installment of the Times' coverage of gay Boy Scouts and leaders. (This is the main issue for the Times when it comes to the Boy Scouts, an organization that saves lives, teaches skills, and performs community service while attracting little attention from the Times for anything other than its policies on gays.)
Today's Times article reports "Glaad and other rights groups took up the cause, enlisting celebrities like Madonna, who wore a Boy Scout uniform to an awards ceremony."
The Times already reported that incorrectly once before; after we ran an item here pointing out the error, the Times ran a correction, which is now appended to the original article. Now they've repeated the error that they've already corrected once before. It'll be interesting to see whether they choose to correct it again, or if they just let the inaccuracy slide this time.
