Vice President Cheney vs. The New York Times

(Fox News) - Vice President Cheney's office has fired off a letter to the editor of The New York Times seeking corrections to an editorial published Sunday.

The editorial accused Cheney of ordering the destruction of visitor records for the vice presidential mansion. Cheney's office cited a letter to the Secret Service requesting that all visitor logs be maintained and preserved.

And the Times wrote that Cheney holds stock options in Halliburton that have grown by millions of dollars in value because of the Iraq war. Cheney's office cited a Times article written in 2001 that said — "Mr. Cheney also gave to charity the after-tax value of his remaining Halliburton options ... three days before Mr. Cheney was sworn in as vice president."

Cheney's office says that adds up to nearly $8 million in donations since then. So far the Times has not published Cheney's letter or made the corrections.
