A correction on Artnet, italicized below. Isn't this usually done by announcing update, or correction, or something?
"The Project sold Mehretu paintings to Douglas Fogle, acting for the Walker Art Center ($18,000)"
The correction wasn't added until after I e-mailed the Walker and the Walker e-mailed Walter Robinson at Artnet. The Walker e-mail to Artnet is posted below. The Walker hasn't bothered to get back to my own request for clarification.
Artnet, Mr. Robinson, please add "correction notice" to your post.
RE: artnet article A TALE OF AN ART-WORLD LAWSUIT
Hi Walter-
I want to clarify information in your article published on January 18 stating that The Project sold a Julie Mehretu painting to Douglas Fogle. In fact, the Walker Art Center purchased the painting. Walker curator Douglas Fogle was acting on the Walker's behalf. I hope you can run a correction notice on artnet.
Regards,
Karen

yeah, i know, i state that above. but my doug fogle piece now looks like i didn't read artnet's lawsuit article correctly.
by the way, i didn't say that fogle had done anything wrong, just looking for some clarification - and i stand by the more general insider trading claim.
i did forward the post to the walker, their contact info page is extremely vague. i e-mailed the general info address and the webmaster, with a request to forward. never heard anything back.
