An article on Saturday about Sam Adams, the mayor of Portland, who is under fire after admitting that in 2005 he had a sexual relationship with an 18-year-old intern, included a quotation from Christopher Stowell, the artistic director for the Oregon Ballet Theater, who attended a rally in support of the mayor.
