As Empathy Fades

Due to an editing error, the April 29 article “As Empathy Fades,” by Joshua Halberstam, contained an inaccuracy. The root of the word charity is “caritas,” as the author had it, not “christos.”

In a May 13 arts piece, the name of the lead singer of the band Neutral Milk Hotel was misspelled. It is Jeff Mangum, not Magnum.

An April 29 profile of Rabbi Josh Simon, rabbi of the Actors Temple in New York, misidentified his genealogy. Rabbi Israel Goldfarb is his maternal, not paternal, grandfather.
