Though it may not seem that way at times, reporters are human beings and as human beings we can on occasion make a mistake.

Typically, after a story has run, if there is a possible error a call or email arrives from the offended party saying “such and such is wrong – fix it now!”

Sometimes, these requests are correct – on the minor side they involve typos or misspellings or mis-identifiers – writing “assistant director of the department of departments” instead of “deputy assistant director of the department of departments” – that sort of thing
