California governor’s office tries to get Fox News to correct ‘shocking mistake’ [View all]

FoxNews.com reported last week that California’s 2012 budget deficit is projected to hit $28 billion.
“Completely false,” writes Gil Duran, Gov. Jerry Brown’s press secretary. “The error was actually pointed out to me by a reporter who thought it was a pretty shocking mistake.”
Duran tells Romenesko readers:
I wrote a request for a correction. Ignored.Unknown So it appears I’m going to have to campaign for a correction. Most news outlets are more than happy to correct an egregious error. Not Fox News, apparently. I’m not surprised by most of what they do. But — come on — you can’t just write fiction. I’m used to their relentless attacks and we generally ignore them … falsehoods are another matter!
