Two contradictory impulses of the 24-hour news cycle have done some bad things to the news business. Or maybe they just amplified bad traits that were already there. In the rush to be the first to report breaking news, things that are simply wrong get published and posted and broadcast. When Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, died recently, one network identified the astronaut on its website as Neil Young.

In the more than three years I have been The Cava lier Daily's ombudsman, I cannot remember seeing anything else this bad. \n"Loveless" (March 26) was an editorial decrying an alcohol-centric event meant to raise money for the One Love Foundation. The editorial also attacked how the foundation has spent its money. The Cavalier Daily's Managing Board, the group responsible for the paper's editorials, did all this mockingly, with puns and word play, even while it chastised the email promoting the fundraiser for tasteless word play. It was beyond sophomoric.

The Managing Board succeeded in engaging The Cavalier Daily's reader base this weekend with its lead editorial "Loveless," but probably not as intended. The editorial brought attention to the fact that a bar night at Boylan Heights was apparently being organized for the benefit of the One Love Foundation, a charity founded in the memory of the late Yeardley Love.

I had intended to write this week about "Loveless," the lead editorial published last week about a fundraiser which apparently seemed to be - but now seems not to be - connected to the One Love Foundation, the charity formed to honor the memory of Yeardley Love, the University student and lacrosse player killed nearly two years ago. George Huguely, another University student and lacrosse player, was convicted in February of second-degree murder in Love's death. Huguely is scheduled to be sentenced for the crime next month.

Update: The Cavalier Daily printed an editorial in last Thursday's paper titled "Loveless," which criticized the scheduling of a bar night at Boylan Heights to raise money for the One Love Foundation, a charity established in honor of Yeardley Love. The Managing Board would like to offer a correction to the piece. Official spokespersons for One Love have indicated the organization had no knowledge of the Boylan Heights event prior to the editorial's publication and said it did not reserve the venue for Saturday. The Managing Board apologizes to the Love family and others involved in the One Love Foundation for any undeserved distress caused by the errors present in the editorial. The Managing Board also regrets that its oversight in not calling the One Love Foundation to verify what was presented as fact has distracted from what was intended to be a serious point about the problems of holding a drinking event to honor the memory of someone murdered by an abuser of alcohol.

In Andrew Rossi's 2011 documentary, "Page One: Inside the New York Times," Times media reporter David Carr tells an audience of journalists at a publishing conference in Minneapolis: "You have lived through the worst cyclical secular recession that the publishing business has ever seen in modern times. Look around you; you're still here. Don't think about the people who are gone. Think about the people that made it. It's a really big deal. It demonstrates, number one, that you're a bunch of tenacious mother-------, I'll tell you that. You have proven you cannot be killed."
