Today, the NYT ran a "correction" of the photo in the Styles section, acknowledging that it shouldn't have been published:
A picture last Sunday with an article about New York nightclub patrons who flout the city’s smoking ban was published in error. The photograph of two men was taken in 2007 and is not a recent example of the numerous bars where smoking is now tolerated. The man in sunglasses, who was not identified, is the artist Jeremy Blake, who died that year.
