John Tomase's explanation

Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff May 16, 2008 12:20 AM

Boston Herald reporter John Tomase pens a piece for Friday's editions explaining where the Feb. 2 story -- claiming that a member of the Patriots' video department taped the Rams' walkthrough prior to Super Bowl XXXVI -- went wrong.

The piece is 1,449-words and details the process that led the story going to print.

It ends this way:

"I take immense pride in what I do and the paper I work for. I truly believe it’s a privilege to serve as a link between the fans and their team.

On Feb. 2, I let you all down. Today I hope to begin the long road back."
