SIREN: Don't look now, but the NYT just NUKED Joe Biden's bogus talking points on Tara Reade

A few moments ago we told you how Stacey Abrams got busted using totally bogus talking points provided by the Biden campaign alleging that the New York Times had investigated the allegations by Tara Reade and found nothing:

Here's Buzzfeed catching @JoeBiden's campaign falsely telling surrogates that @nytimes did a "thorough review" of Tara Reade's allegations & found that "the incident did not happen."

And then here's @staceyabrams repeating those FALSE talking points verbatim on @CNN last night. pic.twitter.com/fNA5mPMhTx

Well, the New York Times just nuked those talking points, and we do mean nuked. From a NYT spox:

A New York Times spokesperson says Biden campaign talking points “inaccurately” suggest that the Times investigation found that Tara Reade’s allegation “did not happen.” Response to this scoop from @rubycramer @RosieGray https://t.co/ZUD6f2WSEE pic.twitter.com/LNaHvH0ZxF
