If there’s one thing I cannot stomach, it’s erroneous reporting. Macnn is read by a number of people who jump on it at any opportunity. This is mainly due to its tendency to misread or misunderstand articles and then quote or summarise accordingly. However, Macnn sometimes doesn’t correct stories.

The on-line version of BBC News does correct errors quickly in response to reader feedback. Because I’m interested in all things Apple, I provide feedback to them whenever they report something wrong. The first time I did this was when they confused iTunes with the iTunes Music Store and it was correctly very quickly.

Today they reported on Apple’s Q3 profits which remarked that they produce colourful computers. I provided them with some minor feedback noting that they stopped producing the coloured iMacs sometime ago (July 2002) and outlining their current range. Sure enough, they’ve now reported that “the company, which produces the must-have gadget as well as computers famous for their stylish design…”

I can’t argue with that
