File under: Oops!
Aug 9 2007 | Comment 1
A few days back, I was disheartened to see an Inquirer article about removing homeless, mentally ill people from Center City streets, and said so. Today Center City District’s Paul Levy pointed me to a correction the Inquirer ran in its “‘Clearing the Record” section. The correction reads:
A headline with an article Friday about homelessness in Philadelphia wrongly implied that the Center City District intended to use physical force to remove mentally ill homeless people from city streets. The district has trained workers to identify mentally ill homeless and to report them to the city’s mental-health outreach program to determine whether they should be involuntarily committed.
So noted.

My Gawd, Oops! Urp! Whatever!
It seems journalists may be more prone to mistakes, errors and whatever than the psych medicos.
Warmly,
