The Village Voice removed this week's cover piece, "Do You Wanna Kiss Me?" from its Web site after learning that Senior Associate Editor Nick Sylvester invented a scene in the story. According to an editor's note posted on the Web site, Sylvester lied about meeting three TV writers in a bar to discuss pickup techniques. Sylvester admits that the "scene was a composite of specific anecdotes" and says he "deeply regret[s] this misinformation." The Voice has begun a review of the entire story.
Since being quoted in a Feb. 16 New Times Miami column as saying "Fuck the Cubans," Miami Police Chief John Timoney has denied speaking those words in local broadcast and print media. But in this week's Miami New Times, Editor Chuck Strouse addresses Timoney directly: "Though you've declined to return our phone calls, two things are clear to us. You, not New Times, have a motivation to lie about this. And you have a history of shading the truth and disavowing your words."
