• An article on Friday about a study linking television viewing by teenagers and young adults with criminal acts and aggressive behavior incompletely quoted a leader of the study, Dr. Jeffrey G. Johnson. He said, "By decreasing exposure to media violence we may be able to prevent millions of Americans from being raped, murdered and robbed at gunpoint" (not "from being raped and murdered"). (New York Times)<p>***No, he wasn't "incompletely quoted." He was misquoted.***
