The NY Times has updated that awful 9/11 article we told you about earlier and deleted the tweet that said, “18 years have passed since airplanes took aim and brought down the World Trade Center.”
Here’s the new tweet:
18 years after nearly 3,000 people were lost, families of those killed in the terror attacks will gather at the 9/11 memorial. There will be a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m., then the names of the dead — one by one — will be recited. https://t.co/rFn2evf1dA

“Edited for clarity”? Yeah, OK. Go with that:
We've deleted an earlier tweet to this story and have edited for clarity. The story has also been updated.
