Dubious ethics

I can only agree wholeheartedly with the comments by Bob Evans [Editor’s ‘ethically dubious’ order challenged] and Marcus Ferrar. This also seems to be opening the way for even more unfortunate corrections than those seen in the recent past. Imagine trying to issue a correction on a story put out by a competitor which Reuters has picked up without checking. “Our customers” should come first but that means getting the story out first. ■
