    My story about @PeteButtigieg ends with him referring to the “failures of the Obama era.” That’s an inaccurate quote — the result of transcribing a noisy recording at a loud rally. His exact words were “failures of the old normal”

        I deeply regret the mistake When we make errors we own them. This one really hurts because it went viral. Here’s the candidate’s full remark: “I also fundamentally believe that there is no going back. My message is not about going back to where we were.

        I think because I come from a part of the country where normal has been a real problem for a very long time, and I think the failures of the old normal help explain how we got to Trump, I am much more interested in building a future that is going to have a lot of differences."

        This is one HELL of a mistake. It's got a life of its own now but the fact so many believe it shows everyone the deep problem he's got with POC. He's talked like this all along.

        OH. MY. GOD. Thank you for owning it. You should call Julian Castro and his entire campaign team and tell them. In person.

        Won't matter, they'll still spread the LIE instead. That's the point of these little "oopsies" They know nobody will pick up the correction, just keep the outrage machine running

        This is how the Press gets a bad name, sloppy reporting. Focus Corp, accuracy and professional excellence is needed more than ever in these times.

        Actually they've always made mistakes and fixed later. It's people who don't revisit stories, don't fully read corrections and the speed at which news spreads being so fast that is the issue.
