My favorite corrections du jour from Regret the Error:
NYT: An earlier version of this article misstated the number of girls younger than 18 who were allegedly invited to a villa by Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi of Italy. Mr. Berlusconi is alleged to have invited about 40 women to the villa, but only some of them were allegedly younger than 18 at the time, not all of them.
Winston-Salem Journal: An op-ed column yesterday incorrectly referred to Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s family as “an immigrant Puerto Rican family.” Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States, and its native-born residents are U.S. citizens.
NPR: We incorrectly referred to a gay rights group as “Equity Illinois.” It is actually called “Equality Illinois.” (Yes, not a newspaper, I realize. Still, it amuses me.)
LAT: Internet reviews: In Meghan Daum’s column Wednesday about Internet customer reviews, the average rate of sales of Three Wolf Moon T-Shirts was incorrect. The shirts are selling at about 100 an hour, not 100 a minute.
