Include Mistakes section?
[edit ]Following several deletions and reversions, in the spirit of the BOLD, revert, discuss cycle, let's discuss whether the section I've copied below should be included in the article.
Mistakes
In February 2016, Time included the male British author Evelyn Waugh on its "100 Most Read Female Writers in College Classes" list, generating media attention and concerns regarding fact-checking at the magazine.[1] Time later issued a retraction. In a BBC interview with Justin Webb, Oxford professor Valentine Cunningham said the mistake was "a piece of profound ignorance on the part of Time magazine".[2]
