Not playing politics

nytbanner1A picture caption in some editions on Monday with an article about the test of loyalties that a same-sex marriage bill poses to Malcolm A. Smith, the New York Senate majority leader, misquoted Mr. Smith, who supports the bill. Referring to the Rev. Floyd H. Flake, Mr. Smith’s mentor, who opposes the bill, Mr. Smith said, “He looks at it as a religious matter, and I look at it as a legal matter.” Mr. Smith did not say, “He looks at it as a religious matter, and I look at it as a political matter.” Link
