Post Holding Off So Far on Correcting Shallow Water Drilling "Moratorium" Error

The Post has run several corrections recently on op-eds and letters. But it hasn't done anything yet with one of the biggest recent gaffes.

The Post actually published an op-ed last Thursday about oil drilling that referred to the "moratorium on shallow-water operations." The government's moratorium, however, was only on deep-water operations.

Today the paper ran a letter noting the error, but didn't correct the record.
