Gizmodo discusses an Engadget report (later retracted) about delays in Apple's release date for the iPhone and the next version of OS X. According to Gizmodo, Engadget's report was enough to cause Apple's stock to fall by 3%—$4 billion. Gizmodo avoids pointing fingers, but uses the incident to discuss its recent efforts to learn from the incident. It's not as if traditional media haven't committed worse blunders—but the point is to learn from them. And in this case, (some of ... well, at least a small subset of) the MSM can offer some lessons.

Gizmodo has an update, some commentary, and a link to Engadget's response to the issue.
