Half-hearted apology followed by retraction

My Way News reports Newsweek's retraction of its story about flushing the Koran down the toilet-WELL AFTER THE DAMAGE WAS DONE. An unbelievable lack of professionalism in getting the story out before you get it right, it seems. Next time I hear someone talk about the high standards of the priesthood of journalism, I'll certainly remember this example.
