NEWS DATING ERROR

by Hazed

Last week I discovered that I had made a mistake. I know, it’s shocking to think someone of my ability and stature could be wrong about anything – but, as Bella is prone to pointing out all too often, I am only a demi-goddess and therefore only infallible half the time.

What I noticed is that for the whole of 2014, I had been sending out the Fed2 Star emails with the wrong date on them. The day and the month were correct, but the year was shown as 2013 – not 2014. Whoops!

What’s more, while preparing this week’s edition I noticed that last week I dated the news August 8 instead of August 3. I blame that one on sickness.

The fact that nobody reported this to me probably means that nobody noticed the problem – even expert proof-readers struggle to spot typos in headlines and other stuff at the top of articles. So if you didn’t notice, then just ignore this story. If you did notice, rest assured that the news will be correctly dated from now on, and that the newsdroid responsible has been thoroughly chastised.
