The Guardian has today printed a correction after failing to refer to its own sub-editors as journalists in an earlier article.
Readers’ editor, Siobhain Butterworth, wrote on Monday, ‘journalists and sub-editors are not expected to be multilingual” in a piece about the paper’s approach to accents.
The corrections and clarifications column of today’s Guardian stated: ‘Subeditors are journalists. In trying to distinguish between the roles the column should have referred to writers/reporters and subeditors.”
