Reporting the news BEFORE it happens

December 22, 2008

I was reading news stories this morning and came across this one on FoxNews.com:

Oddly enough, it’s Monday, December 22, 2008, 9:20am CST right now as I type, which is 7:20am PST.  Somehow FoxNews has an article saying the WhiteKnightTwo took off and landed already, an hour before it’s reported takeoff time?  I looked at the bi-line and it does say Monday, December 22, 2008.  And the article does say “today” right there in the first sentence.

The problem is… this all happened yesterday morning.  Oops.

Congrats to the team at Scaled Composites.
