I think the entire point is they're professional journalists writing a headline to get attention, if they get it wrong then yes they should be ridiculed. Journalists should ALWAYS be held accountable for what they write. Of course it could be they write a retraction article later down the line if things went different in which case I would review my attitude and reaction towards them.

No bloody kidding. You'd think that's what journalist did or something.
Why do they need to write a retraction? Did they make up horrible hurtful things about Don Mattick's family so they have to apologise? They are going to be pointing out their decision by analytical journalism, which isn't really something that can be retracted as they've got nothing to retract. It's opinion based on known facts.

Why do you feel you need to defend them so much, do you have shares in Edge or Sony?

What Edge wrote was pretty accurate really (inside), and what most people have been thinking. Whether they should have printed it or not, well it is a little early to be doing this kind of thing, might have been better to wait until the consoles launch and some early numbers come in...but its an opinion... like all opinions some will like it some wont.
But what they wrote wasnt wrong, so wasnt bad journalism either... front cover might have been overdoing it though.
