Top media corrections of 2006
Regret the Error is the only blog I know of that is officially dedicated to newspapers' errors and their subsequent corrections of those errors (although most political blogs dabble in that territory from time to time). Their annual report on the year in media errors and corrections ranges from profoundly serious apologies (like the Raleigh News & Observer's apology for its role in the race riots of 1898) to the hilarious (like the correction The Oregonian ran explaining that its "State's latest meth cook: OHSU" headline "should have made clear that Oregon Health & Science University will be studying the effects of meth, not cooking it").
