Regret the Error

So much of the discussion about Wikipedia focuses on issues of accuracy, not only in Wikipedia, but also in Britannica and other “professional” resources.

Regret the Error is a blog covering media corrections, retractions, apologies and clarifications, and they never lack for material — sometimes amusing, sometime appalling. There are also links to the corrections pages of major newspapers and media sites, other sites on accuracy and Regret the Errors annual The Year in Media Errors and Corrections lists.

Regret the Error is edited by Craig Silverman, a freelance journalist and author based in Montreal.
