NEW YORK — In a Sept. 23 story about the resignation of Timothy Knight as publisher of Newsday, The Associated Press erroneously attributed quotes to Newsday spokeswoman Deidra Parrish Williams that appeared in a note to staffers.It was Tad Smith, president of Cablevision Systems Corp.'s local media unit, which includes Newsday and News 12, not Williams, who said Knight helped "navigate the paper through one of its darkest chapters.""We are grateful for Tim's service.
