The N.Y. Daily News' cover is totally wrong
The cover of Tuesday's New York Daily News about Monday's Navy Yard shooting is now almost entirely wrong.
The cover features a large AR-15 gun with the headline "Same Gun, Different Slay," and a photo widely circulated on Monday of people tending to a man laid out on a Washington, D.C. corner.
In a press conference Tuesday afternoon, the FBI confirmed that an AR-15 was not used in the shooting. Meanwhile, the photo, since retracted by the AP, has now been determined to be of a medical emergency unrelated to the Navy Yard.
Many outlets, including CNN, NBC News and BuzzFeed initially reported that an AR-15 may have been used by the shooter and published the photo, which had been posted to Twitter by Tim Hogan, communications director for Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.).
Requests for comment to the New York Daily News were not returned as of posting time.
