Earlier this morning on Today in New York, while reporting on Holocaust Remembrance Day, we used a poor choice of words when we said "it is believed" that 6 million Jews died in the Holocaust.
We should have said it is a fact that 6 million Jews died in the Holocaust.
We sincerely apologize for the error.
