Wall Street Journal Issues Correction on Anti-Trump N. Korea Story

The Wall Street Journal recently ran a bombshell article which aimed to show a massive step back in nuclear talks between the Trump administration and North Korea.

The Wall Street Journal has now issued a correction to the main premise of their anti-Trump article. Obviously, this correction was done quietly.

According to The Daily Caller:

The Wall Street Journal quietly added a massive correction to a story that, if accurate, would have had significant implications for nuclear talks between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

On Thursday, the newspaper reported that analysts with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) believe that North Korea may have developed as many as 12 nuclear weapons since the historic Trump-Kim summit in Singapore June 12, 2018.

If true, the assessment would undercut the basis for ongoing nuclear talks between Washington and Pyongyang. Trump has said he believes Kim has adhered to an agreement to curtail the development of nuclear weapons, but Trump’s critics have accused him of being naive in trusting the North Korean dictator.

But the reporting about DIA’s assessment is inaccurate, the newspaper now says. The article has been edited to remove the DIA reference, and a correction has been attached at the bottom of the piece.

North Korea has still fired off several short-range missiles in recent months, but this action is contrary to what the Wall Street Journal first reported.
