There's one heckavu correction in today's Review-Journal.

It's one of those "We don't really want to admit we were wrong" clarifications.

"A story in Thursday's Review-Journal about a policing agreement reached for Clark County parks mischaracterized Las Vegas' comment on the city's interest in a similar arrangement with the Metropolitan Police Department. A city spokesman said the city has "not requested Metro Police's assistance in this area at this time." The spokesman did not answer the question of whether it plans to do so in the future, as incorrectly implied by the story."

So, not only do they only clarify this, they also throw in the last line to imply they may not be at fault.

And, since this comes from the oft-corrected Scott Wyland, we tend to side with the PR flak.

And folks, when we're siding with a spinmeister, you can see just how far the RJ has fallen.

Norm Clarke does another really heinous assault on journalism today by correcting an error deep, deep, deep within a laundry list item that nobody reads.

"Oops! Tina Fey's first name was misspelled in my Thursday column."

That comes 184 words into the "Scene and Heard" column.

Assuming the heading of that column actually is about who's in town and what they said, it's really self-absorbing of the patched one to include himself in it.

Oh, and how the heck do you F-up a name like Tina?

Norm called her Tiny.

Here's a classic oops from Thursday.

"Gary Fisher's party affiliation was incorrect in a list of candidates in Wednesday's Review-Journal. The Assembly District 4 candidate is a Democrat."

We understand it's hard to read stuff from the Internets and copy it down correctly when you type it in. But come on.
