Corrections log
Celeb Scoop Staff·updated this week
Every correction, with the cause. We include the cause because a correction without one tells you nothing about whether it will happen again.
this week
Meridian carpet rundown — we
originally gave the wrong designer credit for the silver-grey column, having taken
it from another outlet rather than waiting for the press office sheet. Corrected
within the hour. Cause: we broke our own rule about second-hand credits under
deadline.
three weeks ago
Verity Road reshoots — the first
version said the additional photography was “two weeks”. It is one.
Cause: a source said “a couple of weeks” conversationally and it was
written down as a fact.
last month
A music item, since removed entirely rather than corrected, reported a festival
booking that turned out to be a proposal that was never signed. Cause: one source,
published without the single-source disclosure our own
rules require. Removing it rather than correcting it
was the right call and we would do it again.
earlier this year
Fathom Line recast — an early version
spelled Delaney Okoro’s name incorrectly in the headline for about twelve
minutes. Trivial, logged anyway, because we said we would log all of them.
