Front page mention, B3 story, not just a retraction in the inner columns.

The Journal pinned the initial mis-information on the "Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a group that advocates a vegetarian diet and has long been critical of the Atkins approach."

Leaves a lot of egg on the Journal's face for not checking the facts. Didn't see the original story so I can't comment on that.

Good for the Journal! Now let's see how many others follow suit.

I am so glad you found this. I heard this on one of the morning news shows. I thought it was very interesting and have told people about it. I'm going to get this artical, cut it out, and keep it for a while to show the truthful side of the story. Thanks again!

Can anyone tell me where to find the article? I am sick of the comments I hear at work and I would like to show the article to them.

Might be available at wsj.com, too, but that's probably for subscribers. If you're near a library they should still have the issue. Lower right hand corner of the page.
