Time Magazine's Changing Story

I've long suspected that news stories on the web get corrected and even sometimes changed, so when I saw an article this morning about Wendi Deng and Rupert Murdoch this morning I did a little fact finding myself to see what was real in this story and what wasn't real.

Bascially Wendi Deng is now on twitter.com or apparently not.  Well if I read the original story and walked away she would have been real person with a real account.  But if I read the story 20 minutes later..  well she's an imposter!  Good thing I went back to check my facts.  Otherwise I would have have been misinformed.  I wonder how often this happens, with no apologies, no heads up, no disclaimers. 

Watch the story change ..
