The
Washington Post has retracted and published a correction relating to claims it
made regarding Saudi Arabia’s King Salman bin Abdelaziz suffering of dementia,
a false claim which the paper later described as “too speculative and
unsubstantiated.”
The Post said it retracted the statement because it
did not meet its “standards for publication.”
The Post responded to Al Arabiya News’s request for
clarification explaining that as the Editor’ Note has previously indicated the
claims were “too speculative and unsubstantiated to meet The Post’s standards
for publication.
