Dan Kennedy catches Ted Kennedy blundering through an op-ed. Indeed, the Communist Manifesto was not written by Mao, the book supposed requested by the UMass student was Mao’s little red book. But I’m wondering how that slipped by because a) certainly Ted Kennedy doesn’t actually write his own op-eds, instead likely farming them off to some staffer who should know these things; and b) even if the Globe editors aren’t in the business of fact-checking or correcting op-eds, shouldn’t they just you know, casually mention to Kennedy’s office that there’s a mistake in what was submitted?
