- Its fictional correction desk corrects a correction that itself required a correction, then apologizes for “the situation.”
Field notes
The page uses a newsroom-style structure, with six subject sections alongside Commentary, and attaches fictional bylines and dates to its story list. Its disclosure identifies the publisher as the Muldoon News Network and directs readers seeking the real outlet to Alaska Beacon. The correction-desk gag escalates through a correction, a correction to that correction, and an apology for the resulting situation.
