Senator Ted Cruz is putting the New York Times on blast over their publishing of an essay claiming that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted a fellow student in college, because it has now been revealed that the student herself does not recall anything of the sort.
The New York Times added a correction to their story late the next evening.
Senator Cruz urged his 3.4 million Twitter followers to read the correction to their story on Monday.
“READ stunning NYT CORRECTION. If a high-school freshman did this on a school paper, he’d get an F. This is an outfit that has won multiple Pulitzers; presumably they know how to be actual journalists. It’s almost as if the reporters, editors, publisher have a political agenda,” Cruz tweeted.
The correction, written by NYT, reads: “the female student declined to be interviewed & friends say that SHE DOES NOT RECALL the incident. That information has been added to the article.” Please, somebody, try to give an explanation for omitting that central fact other than bias.

The Times piece had claimed that a student at Yale had witnessed Kavanaugh exposing himself and that other students had pushed him so that his penis hit the hand of a female student. They omitted that the student does not recall the incident taking place and that she had declined to be interviewed about it.
“Given the NYT “correction,” what are the odds that any of the 2020 Dem presidentials who relied on the NYT story to call for impeaching Kavanaugh (at last count, Warren, Sanders, Harris, Castro, O’Rourke & Booker) will modify or retract their own partisan position? ZERO,” Cruz added in another tweet.
