Detroit Free Press "covers" CEO's speech (but he's out sick)
Poynter Online ^ | August 31, 2007 | Jim Romenesko

A front-page story in Wednesday's Free Press said "[Bob] Nardelli, Chrysler's new chief executive office and chairman, addressed more than 300 senior executives at an all-day meeting Tuesday at Hyatt Regency Dearborn." Actually, Nardelli was sick on Tuesday and didn't deliver the speech -- until Wednesday. Corrections in the print edition and online story don't explain to readers how the mistake was made.

It's a good thing it wasn't a blogger reporting on the speech, because we know how bloggers don't have the journalistic training that the MSM does.
