"In 2019, Altman was asked to resign from Y Combinator after partners alleged he had put personal projects, including OpenAI, ahead of his duties as president, said people familiar with the matter."

I am familiar with that entire episode, and while I agree that quote gives the wrong impression, that definitely falls in the realm of gray area and it's not hard for me to see how "people family with the matter" truthfully reported what they knew: Namely, Altman was asked to choose his priorities - do one or the other, but not both. Again, I think reporting that as "asked to resign" gives an incorrect impression of what happened, but literally it's not that far off.

>Editor's Note: An earlier version of this article detailed how an internal law enforcement bulletin said that ammunition recovered following the Charlie Kirk shooting was engraved with expressions of “transgender and anti-fascist ideology." Justice Department officials later urged caution about the bulletin by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, saying it may not accurately reflect the messages on the ammunition, and the article was updated Thursday to reflect that. This editor's note was appended on Friday, Sept. 12, after Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said the engravings included one that said “Hey fascist!” along with other messages and symbols. He gave no indication that the ammunition included any transgender references.

And even then the bulletin was not thought to be genuine (especially considering it wasn't true)

It took the NYT less an an hour to debunk. The Wrap reported
