Or was that comfortably numb? Of the many mistakes published in the Star in 2019, a few, as always, stand out as notable “how did that happen” errors that make us cringe with embarrassment and groan with disbelief. Dionisio referred to meditation and said, “I meditate.”In 2019, up to Dec. 23, we published 1,595 corrections for errors across all the Star and StarMetro’s publishing platforms. Astonishingly, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh was mistakenly referred to as Jasmeet Singh just days before the federal election officially began. We must never become “comfortably numb” to the imperative for accuracy and corrections in trustworthy journalism.
