correction

No, it's in the print edition.  It's their joking comment on the release of
the new studies on the election.

Just the usual bizarro Economist humor.

When I first saw this on nettime, I thought it was a hoax. It isn't,
unless someone's cracked the Economist's website. - Doug

An election correction
Nov 15th 2001

 From The Economist print edition

In the issues of December 16th 2000 to November 10th 2001, we may
have given the impression that George Bush had been legally and duly
elected president of the United States. We now understand that this
may have been incorrect, and that the election result is still too
close to call. The Economist apologises for any inconvenience.
