BROOKE GLADSTONE: And now, Corrections. [MUSIC UNDER: I'M SORRY] On March 11th, the New York Times Five From column about Wolfgang Puck's five favorite dishes prepared by other chefs referred incorrectly to the chicken at L'Ami Louis in Paris. It is simply roasted. It is not prepared in the Basque style.
BOB GARFIELD:In the April 1st San Francisco Chronicle the Sporting Green column erroneously said Zsa Zsa Gabor [sp?] is dead. Also a quote about America's unfamiliarity with China was wrongly attributed to basketball player Yao Ming [sp?]. The speaker was fellow player Huang Zhi Zhi [sp?].
BROOKE GLADSTONE:I erred in the March 23rd edition of On the Media when I stated that Roman Emperor Commadus [sp?] was killed by his wife. His wife only attempted to kill him. He was strangled in bed by his wrestling partner.
BOB GARFIELD:In the March 29 Des Moines Register an article about the repercussions of topless oil wrestling at a Clive [sp?] bar gave the wrong title for I. John Rossi [sp?]. He is an administrative law judge.
BROOKE GLADSTONE:And on page two of the metro section of the March 30th St. Louis Post Dispatch Vicki Tritten Myer's [sp?] was misspelled in a story about heart transplant patient Linda Hornder [sp?] who was being transported to the hospital in a helicopter when it was hit by a duck subsequently named Chopper by Horner. Chopper did not survive the ordeal, and Myers is Chopper's taxidermist.
