Department of Questionable Corrections
Romenesko takes note today of this item in Westword, Denver's alt-weekly:
Correction of the day: The July 27 edition of the Denver Daily News contained the following statement: "The Denver Daily News would like to offer a sincere apology for a typo in Wednesday's Town Talk regarding New Jersey's proposal to ban smoking in automobiles. It was not the author's intention to call New Jersey 'Jew Jersey.'"
We'll just say this: The North Jersey town in which we grew up had 16,000 residents and three synagogues. And school closed for the High Holidays.
UPDATE: Albany macher Shelly Silver, on the other hand, thinks it's about time we became Jew York. [The Forward]
