" This is a significant oversight...I'm surprised an error of this magnitude wasn't fact checked before publishing. Consider the effect something like this would have had if the company in question was publicly traded and the newspaper was the Wall Street Journal. .. "

" Agreed. "Alligator" owner files for Bankruptcy. :)

Correction: the word doesn't was missing from the previous sentence. It should have read "Alligator" owner doesn't file for Bankruptcy. We regret this error. "
