Another error by the NYT against the good guys.
New York Times issues correction for op-ed calling Jesus 'Palestinian,' not Jewish
The New York Times, which apologized yesterday for running "anti-Semitic propaganda" against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump, issued a correction about an article alleging Jesus was Palestinian and not Jewish.
The op-ed, titled "As a Black Child in Los Angeles, I Couldn’t Understand Why Jesus Had Blue Eyes," read: “Jesus, born in Bethlehem, was most likely a Palestinian man with dark skin.” The New York Times issued the correction one week after it ran the story and received a barrage of criticism.
"Because of an editing error, an article last Saturday referred incorrectly to Jesus’s background," the Times wrote. "While he lived in an area that later came to be known as Palestine, Jesus was a Jew who was born in Bethlehem."
It was changed to: "But Jesus, a Jew born in Bethlehem, presumably had the complexion of a Middle Eastern man."
