Inaccuracy in the NYT

The New York Times repeats a hoary old lie:

No prominent opponent of abortion has come anywhere near the podium of a Democratic convention since 1992, when abortion rights groups blocked a speech on the subject by Robert P. Casey, the governor of Pennsylvania and an observant Catholic.

Casey didn't speak at the convention because he hadn't endorsed the party's Presidential candidate. Nothing to do with abortion.
