> invasion of Iraq which they were disastrously wrong about

They did publish a correction. Some pithy blurb like "Blah blah blah, we regret the error."

To their credit, most warmongers didn't have the stones to do a mea culpa.

Regardless, I unsubscribed and never looked back. (Ditto The Atlantic, for the same reason. Impotently, I didn't have a NY Times sub to cancel in protest.)

During the run up to Bush's Folly, one of their wizened writers related how The Economist regarded the Vietnam War, noting the similarities, noting The Economist's moral failings, wondering if they'd repeat the same mistake.
