51-second "total tool error"
"John Edwards suspends White House bid." So read a hed on washingtonpost.com -- until it was replaced. Executive editor Jim Brady said it was the result of a glitch that had nothing to do with a journalistic decision. Seems heds to possible stories are backlogged, ready to go as soon as they're needed to post a story online FAST. This one went on too fast. After 51 seconds, it was replaced by a hed that reflected the facts. Media Bistro captures the story here and here.
