New York Times identifies more suspect articles

New York June 12 . The New York Times said today it had uncovered more suspect articles by Jayson Blair, the disgraced reporter who sparked a plagiarism scandal that claimed the jobs of the newspaper's top two editors.

Since the paper published an extensive report of plagiarism and fabrications by Mr. Blair, 10 additional articles have been found ``to include misstatements or possibly borrowed passages, or quotations that have been denied by the speaker to whom they were attributed,'' the newspaper announced in an editor's note. The list of articles has been posted on the website www.nytimes.com, where it will remain accessible for a week. — AFP
