Speaking of apologies...

BBC apologizes for airing erroneous story on IDF soldier

"Dozens of complaints have been received about a story on BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day during the Today program that suggested a Muslim corporal in the Israel Defense Forces had been jailed for refusing to shoot Palestinian children, according to The Telegraph...Dr. Bell said he did not intend to cause offense and acknowledged that aspects of his story were incorrect, the British daily reported."

The results of a Google search I did for "BBC apologizes" is quite entertaining.
