I dropped the journalist who wrote this article:

a note commenting on a few errors and she corrected it to this version:

which is more accurate.
To let people know :)

Just FYI, BBC News online are also good about correcting articles - their newswatch facility almost in a sense allows moderated edits to articles by readers. Certainly I've never had them *ignore* any contributions, though they are dogmatic about some points (They refuse to see their biased use of the term "Irish Republic" as unacceptable - it's not like Irish newswriters use silly terms like British State for the United Kingdom).
Of course, some corrections should not have had to be made in the first place.
