But... but... that can't be true! I read something else from P Innes
at Chessvile:

"New York Times have fired one correspondent of their chess blog and
hired GM Benjamin as replacement. I think the last entry to the
'Gambit blog' was by this Parrot who pointed out a few details,
chessically speaking, about what was reported and what not."

Note the twin P Innes themes in these sentences:

- mistakes and distortion in his reporting;
- a claim, either implied or stated outright, that P Innes was
responsible for the event reported.

These are the hallmarks of P Innes' 'journalism.'
What are the odds of a retraction at Chessville?

Why retract when you can deny saying it?

Or, perhaps "don't retract, attack".

Depends on the phases of the Moon, I suppose.
It looks like it's been pulled off of Mig's site.
