Journalism issue of accuracy

The link below is about a contestant on Australian Idol.

I read this article not long after having read the chapter in our text about accurately reporting information.

So I found it relevant that in the fifth paragraph from the bottom, the contestant's name is incorrectly spelt...

I just thought I would add this to my Journalism blog as a point of interest, and to reiterate the importance of accuracy when reporting a story.
