It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

No surprise.

The NYT is hemorrhaging readership (and thus money) at a stupendous rate--if reports are to be believed, about 10% a year. All staff have been cut back and many old hands replaced with younger, less experienced (hence cheaper) folks. And new staff have a higher workload because there are fewer of them.

Same thing here with the (NYT-owned) Boston Globe. They fired nearly every reviewer, for example, and replaced them with people at lower salary.

I expect that errors such as the one you point out will become more common and that responses to corrections (given the small constituency of the item in question) will be either slow or nonexistent.
