The San Francisco Chronicle has issued a retraction of its erroneous quote about the Factor from yesterday:
An editorial Tuesday saying that talk-show host Bill O'Reilly implied that anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan's actions were treasonous mischaracterized O'Reilly's statements. O'Reilly referred on his Aug. 9 TV show to support for Sheehan on an antiwar Web site and said: "I think Ms. Sheehan bears some responsibility for [the Web site's content] and also for the responsibility of other American families who have lost sons and daughters in Iraq who feel that this kind of behavior borders on treasonous." On the next day's show, he said: "I said some families who also lost loved ones in Iraq believe what she's doing borders on treason."
