The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I do not use chatgpt, but I do pay for Kagi.

The New Zealand Herald has faced several instances where it published false or disputed information that required retraction:

Smart Environmental Limited Case (2021): The Herald retracted reporting on Smart Environmental Limited and its director after defamation proceedings were initiated, later apologizing publicly[1].
Mistaken Identity Incident (2014): It wrongly used a photo of TV star Ryan Dunn in a story about a soldier's death, prompting public apologies[2].
"Fraud of the Rings" Story (2010): A story casting doubt on a collector's Lord of the Rings memorabilia faced criticism for inaccuracies, though no formal retraction was confirmed[3].
