Footnote to a footnote

by Diane

As noted in the weblog of the noble and wise Neil Gaiman:

…the BBC article formerly entitled PRATCHETT ANGER AT ROWLING’S RISE has now transmuted into a much milder article entitled Pratchett takes swipe at Rowling, which no longer accuses Terry of very much at all, apart from “poking fun”.

…It’s definitely a good thing that online journalism is capable of revising itself to agree with reality, although it’s going to puzzle the hell out of all the people in the future who click on the links to the BBC page and are unable to discover what they’re meant to be outraged about.

Meanwhile, to everybody who’s visited Out of Ambit in the last couple/few days of this kerfuffle and friendslisted or otherwise bookmarked it: you’re entirely welcome. Please make yourselves at home.
