Retracted

from the toxic-news dept.

From the (boneheaded) editor: My apologies. I pooched this one in a way that is exceptional, even for me. I humbly beg your forgiveness. The line for torches is on the left, and pitchforks is on the right. Please, move on to the next story and don't waste any further time on this one.

Regards,

    Wow, retracted, really? Was not expecting that, and not entirely sure I'm on board with it. Still, it takes a lot to publicly own up to making a mistake. Apology accepted. Now that you're older and wiser you can take off the pointy cap and come out of the corner.

    Maybe you can even have a cookie. I'm sure you'll do better next time. Don't take my complaining too seriously, by the way.

    I'm opposed to actual story retractions like this. The comments addressed the issues. Take the lumps, do better next time, but move on.
     
    It'll be fun watching the Mighty Buzz's reaction to this, though.
