A STORY published last Sunday (`Pick a fight with me’) attributed quotes to North Queensland’s Carl Webb in an article relating to a possible boxing match against NSW prop Brett White.
The quotes were passed on to The Sunday Telegraph and published in good faith.
Unfortunately, Webb was not informed about the story and never said he wanted to fight Brett White or any other player.
The Sunday Telegraph apologises for any embarrassment caused to Carl Webb and the North Queensland Cowboys.
The Sunday Telegraph wishes to apologise to Opposition Leader Malcolm Turnbull in relation to a story titled “Turnbull rant about PM and his ‘rude’ wife” published on November 9 2008.
The paper accepts the story was wrong and Mr Turnbull did not accuse Therese Rein of being rude or discourteous. He also did not say he had been snubbed by the PM’s wife.
ON March 9, 2008, The Sunday Telegraph published an article entitled “Wall of silence”, which referred to Dr Patricia Salisbury.
That article falsely stated that Dr Patricia Salisbury was the subject of a complaint of a sexual assault on one of her patients, resulting in a restriction on her practice as a doctor.
The Sunday Telegraph unreservedly apologises to Dr Patricia Salisbury for publishing the false statement.
