Reader's Digest: No, we're not moving right

Updated

Remember a little earlier today when we linked to a New York Timesstory about how Reader's Digest Association was moving in a "decided conservative direction" to court red-state religious types?

Not so much, it turns out. RDA executive Eva Dillon just sent out the following memo denying the thrust of the Times story, and implying that the paper's reporter, Stephanie Clifford, "misinterpreted" what's going on. The company also says it's asking the Times for a correction; Clifford tells me she hasn't heard from anyone at RDA yet and thus can't comment.
