Default NY Times: Many clerics dispute election results

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/05/wo...05iran.html?hp

The Association of Researchers and Teachers of Qum has put out a statement saying all the right things, apparently.

But the NYT, hampered by reporting restrictions, obviously isn't at all sure what is really going on.

I'm curious whether the figure of 20 for protesters' deaths is sloppy NYT reporting, or if it's echoed directly in the clerics' statement ...
