The Chicago Tribune ran a nine year old story on their website saying that United Airlines was bankrupt. The stock dropped by 99%, as you might predict.

The newspaper realized their error, corrected it and the United Airlines stock regained what value was lost. I would hate to work at the Chicago Tribune today. The Tribune is the newspaper that printed “Dewey Defeats Truman” that lives on in immortality. Via: thestreet |
