Subject: BS: necessary newspaper corrections

Some errors in newspapers are fairly trivial(eg spelling my name Stevens). Occasionally, however, a really splendid error appears. Today in the Observer there is an apology for an article they printed which described the music in Woody Allen's "Sweet and Lowdown" as "terrible". The correction points out that the word they meant to use was "terrific".
Anybody recall any other examples of a newspaper getting it that wildly wrong?
