Dids - with live journalism there is always going to be a trade-off between quality of information received and the speed it gets out there. Clearly PN prioritises speed over quality and for me and im sure most others this is exactly how it should be done. small errors that are later fixed are a small price to pay for the fact that we are getting almost live coverage which we wouldnt with an editor....

We are receiving near-real time coverage. Even a small operation like PN can setup workflow processes that include a filter before posting. The editor does not have to blue line items and send them back. Simply correct any obvious errors and post.
ANY publication has a responsibility to ensure quality and accuracy over speed. In this case they can have both and the hit on speed, per update, would literally be measurable in seconds if they had the correct processes in place.
I've been OK with PN's coverage and will parrot those who have said that it is far superior to the crap CP gave us last year. But, they do need to look at how they process information.
