The Guardian newspaper has published a series of corrections and clarifications to address errors in recent articles, underscoring its commitment to journalistic accuracy and transparency.
Key Corrections Issued
In a recent update, the newspaper acknowledged several mistakes that required amendment. One notable correction involves a photograph of Sera Markoff, the Plumian professor of astronomy and experimental philosophy at the University of Cambridge. The image, which appeared in a print article about a black hole filming project, should have credited photographer Tina Korhonen. This omission was limited to the print version only.
Music Date Error Corrected
Another significant correction pertains to an obituary for guitarist Bob Weir. The article incorrectly stated that the Grateful Dead single Touch of Grey was released in 1981. In fact, the song was released in 1987, and this error has been rectified in the online version.
Other Recent Amendments
The Guardian also listed other articles that have been recently amended, including:
- A personal account titled My week avoiding ultra-processed foods: ‘Why is it this hard?’
- An inspiring story: ‘I was told I wouldn’t walk again. I proved the doctors wrong’: the bike-obsessed pensioner who broke his neck and started afresh
- A piece on culinary confusion: Still confused about swedes and turnips
- A political report: European leaders warn of ‘downward spiral’ after Trump threatens tariffs over Greenland – as it happened
