FOR THE RECORD

-

TSA: In the June 3 Section A, an article about TSA airport screeners’ failure to find fake explosives and weapons in 67 out of 70 tests said that the tests were conducted by undercover federal agents known as the Red Team. That term was used by Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson in a news release about the testing. But in a Senate hearing Tuesday, Homeland Security Inspector General John Roth said the tests were carried out by auditors in his office, and not by a Red Team.

African American history museum: In the June 7 Section A, a headline on an article about the Smithsonia­n Institutio­n’s National Museum of African American History and Culture, including its plans to document the recent unrest in Baltimore, erred in describing the museum’s location. As the article noted, the museum is under constructi­on in Washington, D.C., not in Baltimore.

Playboy Jazz Festival: In a preview of the Playboy Jazz Festival in the June 9 Calendar section, the Blue Note-assembled group Our Point of View was described as performing a repertoire mostly of classic covers from the label. While early promotiona­l material indicated this was the vision for the group, it has since evolved to primarily covering music written by each band member.
