Lonewacko issues clarification; admits mistakes might have been made
Posted Tue, Feb 1, 2005 at 9:25 am
"On January 13, 2005, The Lonewacko Blog posted the entry "Hey, yahoo!" about a Romanian child named "Yahoo" because his parents met over the Internet.
It has now come to our attention (snopes . com/media/notnews/yahoo.asp) that this might have been a hoax (edition . cnn . com/2005/WORLD/europe/01/24/yahoo.baby.reut).
We regret not applying the usual standards of journalistic excellence that our readers expect.
Mistakes might have been made, and we deeply regret any confusion this might have caused."
