The Canadian Press moved a story April 3 that erroneously reported The Wilkins Ice Shelf was originally part of Jamaica. In fact the Ice Shelf, located on the western side of the Antarctic was originally the size of Jamaica.
Thanks, Andrew!

I offered some basic advice for preventing factual errors in this post. You should also download the free Regret the Error accuracy checklist here. Then read my Columbia Journalism Review column that explains why checklists are so effective.
Finally, you have any tips or tricks for helping prevent errors, please share them with me, so I can share them with others.
