Newsweek Corrects Story
--Blames Staticky Cell-Phone
Newsweek has corrected its report concerning Korans being flushed down toilets at U.S. detention centers in Afghanistan. "We believe our anonymous source actually said 'the cold water ran when you flush the toilets'," said a source at Newsweek. "Or maybe it was 'a crow ban will flesh out the cornlets'. Anyhoo," the source continued, "it's not that big a deal. Remember when we published the cover story about the discovery of 'Hitler's diaries' about fifteen years ago? No one else does, either."
