According to Tim Higgins' front-page story in Wednesday's Detroit Free Press, "Chrysler's new chief executive office and chairman, addressed more than 300 senior executives at an all-day meeting Tuesday at Hyatt Regency Dearborn." Turns out Nardelli was sick on Tuesday. When the error was flagged, the Freep added this little ditty to the online version: "Correction: This story has been corrected since it was originally posted. The timing of CEO Bob Nardelli's address to executives was incorrect in early versions of this story. Nardelli is expected to speak to Chrysler execs today (Wednesday)." Yes, well, that's not much of an explanation is it? Clearly,Mr. Higgins wrote his report based on an advance copy of the speech. Oops. The next day, the gang over at The Detroit News felt obliged to include this info in their [follow-up?] story: "Nardelli was ill Tuesday and unable to address the group of 300 top Chrysler executives during the first day of a two-day meeting." They should talk. The Detroit News' relied on unnamed "sources" for its report on Nardelli's speech. As the Brits say, when you're in a hole, the first thing you do is stop digging.
