An "innocent" mistake?

Because of faulty reporting in the Newsweek, 13 people have been killed and
more than 100 have been injured. And do they appologize. . . well sort of.

"We regret that we got any part of our story wrong, and extend our sympathies to
victims of the violence and to the U.S. soldiers caught in its midst," Whitaker
wrote in the magazine's latest issue, due to appear on U.S. newsstands on
Monday."

However,

"Newsweek, which said opponents of the Afghan government including remnants of
the Taliban had used its report to fan unrest in the country, said it was not
contemplating disciplinary action against staff."

and,

"This was reported very carefully, with great sensitivity and concern, and
we'll continue to report on it," said Newsweek Managing Editor Jon Meacham. "We
have tried to be transparent about exactly what happened, and we leave it to the
readers to judge us."

Apparenlty not carefully enough for it to be correct? And they are going to continue to report? Aren't innocent lives a bit more important than selling your magazine? Is it possible that you should clam up on this one a bit until some of this stuff blows over? I mean seriously you don't just report and then let the chips fall where the may. You've got to know whatthe reactions to your actions are going to be. Maybe it's just late, and I'm ticked. . I don't know . . . am I over reacting?
