Correction

Last week’s "Media Maven" erroneously credited The New York Times with uncovering a Central Intelligence Agency-run network of secret offshore prisons for detainees taken in the "war on terror"; in fact, the Washington Post broke that story.  The Journal regrets the error.

“For the first time in many, many years, Humboldt County’s unemployment rate had just slipped beneath the state average,” stated the Jan. 22 edition of “The Town Dandy,” referring to the Dec. 2008 figures collected by the California Employment Development Department. In point of fact, this turns out not to be the case. A review […]

In last week’s Arts! Arcata guide, two works of art were mistakenly attributed to other artists. A painting by Richard Quenzer (shown at Arcata Co–op) was wrongly credited to Ken Jarvela. A painting by Patricia Sennott (shown at Meridian Fine Art Gallery) wrongly credited to Susan Fox. The Journal regrets the errors.

A photo caption on pages 12 and 13 of last week’s Journal misidentified Arcata City Council candidate Jason Grow as fellow candidate Geronimo Garcia, and vice versa. The Journal regrets the error.

The name of Mary Cruse, director of the Wild Rivers 101 Film Festival, was misspelled in a sidebar to last week’s cover story. The Journal regrets the error.

Last week’s cover story, “Lazio’s Last Stand,” contained several errors in respect to the Bayfront One property development.

Second, the article misstated the city of Eureka’s […]

There was a misstatement in the story “Of Course We Do” from last week’s issue. It stated that if The California Marriage Protection Act, a constitutional amendment on the November ballot, passes, the same-sex marriages that happen in the weeks and months to come will become void. In fact, there is no clause written in […]
