![]()
The UK’s Times Online, acquirer of The 2008 Newspaper Awards’ “News Site of the Year” honors, caused a taste of a impress when it referenced the “Sony Wii” in a Sun article most Grand Theft Auto IV.
The article in question applauds videogames as existence “intensely fictive story-driven fantasies and astonishingly graphic sports-based games” and remarks that the “latest games fashioned for the Sony Wii housing crapper modify obligate players to fortuity sweat.”
Though it’s unsatisfactory that the Times got something as essential as the concern of the Wii wrong, that could perhaps be forgiven as a ultimate manlike mistake. What’s more disappointing, though, is that the article has still to be corrected, despite the fact that individual comments on the Times’ place spinous discover the error.
