This morning The New York Times issued a correction related to this story that appeared in the paper last Friday. The story focused on the rise in viewership for Fox Business Network and CNBC during the financial crisis. As pointed out by TVNewser last week, the Times story did not include a disclaimer that the newspaper has a content-sharing relationship with CNBC.
Today, the Times made good:
An article last Friday about an increase in television ratings for Fox Business Network and CNBC during the financial crisis omitted CNBC’s relationship to The New York Times. CNBC, which is owned by NBC Universal, has a content-sharing agreement with The Times.
