Even media makes mistakes

December 30, 2005 Media

Craig Silverman from an interesting blog called Regret the Error, published a list of the best media corrections of 2005.

The list, called Crunks ‘05: The Year in Media Errors and Corrections, highlights really bad errors, such as the Newsweek Koran-flushing story that led to deadly riots and also just plain stupid errors, such as mistakes about “beef panties.”

If you only read one end-of-year list on a blog that has the word “crunk” in the title, let it be this one.
