Best Irish Times article ever

Crubeens

If I was to get a belly laugh out of something this morning, I would never have guessed it would be out of the Irish Times. But reading through the 'Corrections and Clarifications' section I came across this:

A preview in Saturday's Irish Times on Fitzgerald at 80, RTE Television's four part series based on interviews with Dr Garret Fitzgerald, incorrectly attributed a comment to the former taoiseach. The preview quoted Dr Fitzgerald saying that in his early career he was "rather juvenile in manner, full-up with myself and a good deal of a prick"
Dr Fitzgerald has since pointed out that he would never, and did not on this occassion, use such language. The word he used was "prig". The error is regretted

Classic
