National Post is 'winner' of the year
for its correction

The National Post has tied for winner of the year for The Crunks 06, the compilation from the site Regret The Error of corrections and apologies from newspapes and magazines. It won for its correction following the May 19 front page splash of a story from an Iranian freelancer that said non-Muslims would have to wear special badges. (It used up almost as much space explaining how it came to publish the flat-out wrong story than it did on the story itself.)

Ummmm... Perhaps you should run a correction: The blog name is "Regret the Error" not "Correct the Error."
