Rooters: Not As Sure About Holocaust As They Used To Be
Yesterday we noted that a Reuters dispatch, titled "Iran's President Questions Holocaust," included this sentence: "Historians say six million Jews were killed in the Nazi Holocaust." A later version of the dispatch, however, deleted the words "Historians say" and presented the Holocaust as fact: "The Nazis killed some 6 million Jews during their 1933-1945 rule."But today, Reuters has a new formulation: Historians say six million Jews were killed in the Nazi Holocaust. Regarding this widely-accepted view, Ahmadinejad was quoted by the official Iranian news agency IRNA . . . "Well, we used to be sure, but there's been a lot of talk going around the office that it could have been as little as a dozen or two, and maybe due to food poisoning or they were hit by a bus or something."
