Weekly to apologize for Holocaust story

PRINCETON, N.J., Feb. 16 (UPI) -- Responding to objections from Princeton University students, the Nassau Weekly reportedly will print an apology for an article on the Holocaust.

The apology will be printed in next week's issue of the weekly newspaper. The incident stems from an earlier publication of a list of "Top 10 Holocaust movies I've never seen, but would like to," reports the Daily Princetonian.

The list printed in the magazine's Feb. 10 issue under the larger headline "And Now For Something Completely Offensive," was written by the magazine's coeditor-in-chief and features editor, the report said.

In the list, the two altered mainstream movie titles like "Dude, Where's My Car," "A Weekend at Bernie's" and "Meet the Fockers" to "Dude, Where's My Family," "A Week at Bergen-Belsen" and "Exterminate the Fockers," the Princetonian said.

Associate Dean of Undergraduate Students Hilary Herbold said the list was "undeniably offensive" and that discipline was "not out of the question."
