If anything was ever wince-worthy, this sure is!
Honestly, somebody should just buy this NYT reporter a drink. Am sure he needs it. pic.twitter.com/y5nXE4ULRg

Too good to check? Yes. Because it was making the rounds anyway this week on Twitter with sidesplitting results.
@AnnieLinskey I was thinking the same thing — yesterday! I see there is yet another correction today! Poor guy.
— Theresa Juva-Brown (@TJuva) October 1, 2015
That’s right. The correction lasted for MULTIPLE DAYS.
@TJuva (two more today)

Stop it! Our aching sides can’t take much more.
@AnnieLinskey @lrozen Even the corrections bury the lead…Representative Rubio?
— Andy Wright (@AndyMcCanse) October 2, 2015
@AnnieLinskey Jesus. How does any NYT editor let "Congressman Rubio" get by 'em?
— Suspicious Person (@EdwardEricsonJr) October 1, 2015
Well. Because, New York Times.
And back to the super embarrassing conversation with the editor:
@SaysSimonson @willrahn Ugh. I know. Can you imagine? Was it five separate convos? Ugh. Ugh.

Or:
@AnnieLinskey @willrahn could be just one drawn out sigh of profound disappointment

Oh dear.
And in a sad nutshell:
@AnnieLinskey It would have been shorter to list what was actually correct in the original story.
