I don't think a real US Army Special Forces-Green Beret-Vietnam-Vet-CPT would worry much about such a trivial news article, unless its not true and your ability to practice "law" could be jeopardized.

A newspaper with no spine.... You don't make retractions you delete the whole article.

Pure genius Susan Silvers, brilliant move Mr. Editor of the connpost.com

Time to send complaints to the Conn Bar Association.

How in the eff you you "remove" an article?? If an article had bullshit facts its either a function of shitty reporting a willful deception on the part of the subject of the story or both. In any case jounalistic ethics demands followup article, a retraction or whatever... Yes, Ethics... a concept so very foreign to many in our society.

Complaints are due to the connpost as well. They have any competing newspapers that they are going head to head with??
