MBP of the Week: Los Angeles Times

This picture ran in the L.A. Times on Friday. The caption said: “Kobe Bryant and Derek Fisher make it hard for the Heat’s Ricky Davis to make a pass.”

Not quite.

Yesterday, the Times published the following correction:

“A caption in Friday’s Sports section with the story of the Lakers-Heat game misidentified the Lakers’ Lamar Odom as Derek Fisher.”

The photo and the mistake are still up on the Los Angeles Times website. See for yourself.

I wouldn't think the hometown paper would be able to mess up like that, especially when the players are currently on the team.♠
