indeed, the New York Times does this constantly, and doesn’t appear to have any serious desire to retract such quotations or penalize the reporters making them. It’s kind of disgusting. they even got rid of the public editor position, the ombudsman monitoring such things.

There's no ombudsman anymore? I didn't know that. Makes sense though...

This is the paper that stood by a blatant lie it ran on its front page February 5, 1992, even in the face of video and witness refutation, and then promoted the "reporter" who wrote the lie to a series of senior editorial positions. But, sure, they're just "mistakes", right.
