The Daily Digest: About that email story…

Good morning, here are five stories to start your Tuesday.

1. The New York Times public editor is taking the paper to task over its reporting of the latest development in the Hillary Clinton email story. The paper inaccurately reported that two officials were seeking a criminal investigation by the Justice Department of the way Clinton used private email when she was Secretary of State. The public editor writes, "competitive pressure and the desire for a scoop, led to too much speed and not enough caution."  (New York Times)

2. And if you missed it, a former Times reporter took on the story the other day at Newsweek.

3. The minimum wage is going up again in Minnesota due to legislation passed last year. It's set to go up another 50 cents next year. (AP via MPR News)

4. The suicide rate in jails is higher than it is in prisons. (NPR)

5. Boston has given up its effort to win the 2024 Olympics as public support for the idea dropped. (USA Today)
