The GOP 'Victory Lap' - WSJ.com
This is an article about the Republican reaction to the passing of the health care legislation.
Deep inside the article there is a discussion of who said what afterwards; and ONCE AGAIN, the media got it wrong, disparagingly wrong at the expense of Newt Gingrich.
Yes, there is a correction; but, how many people return to a website to read an article a second time, and would see that correction?...

It's all in James Taranto's Wall Street Journal opinion column:
"Editors' Note: March 23, 2010
The Paul Krugman column on Monday, about the health care bill, quoted Newt Gingrich as saying that 'Lyndon Johnson shattered the Democratic Party for 40 years' by passing civil rights legislation. The quotation originally appeared in The Washington Post, which reported after the column went to press that Mr. Gingrich said it referred to Johnson's Great Society policies, not to the 1964 Civil Rights Act."
