At least they fessed up to the errors. In today's world, they easily could have let it ride and never heard another word about it. Fact checking is a lost art.

They usually fess up or issue corrections, but they do it days after and they just edit the same article that's already buried in their archives. They do this so they can claim they corrected it, but by that point the false narrative the original article portrayed is already considered the correct story.
