Take a look at the correction at the bottom: UPDATE: The AP updated its story with a spokesman for Mexico's president saying: "It is absolutely false that the president of the United States threatened to send troops to Mexico."
So you see whats going on? The AP put out a correction, but NBC chose to report the story as fact...before fact checking. interesting huh?
Fact checking in the ethics of journalism is a cornerstone. There is no argument there, it is a guiding principle.

I agree. For a lot of media companies, when they retract a story they don't put it out there like the original. I ain't debating media ethics with you though, I am all too aware of how shady they are on both sides of the aisle.
