Several news sites (including the Daily Mail Online, the Sun, Sky News and the Guardian, and that's just the UK ones) heard the judge say "guilty" about slander, & posted the wrong verdict about the murder conviction.
It's not unusual to have more than one story ready to go, but the Daily Mail online was particularly detailed:

It has always been suspected that they exist in a separate universe from the rest of us. I am glad to see eh hypothesis confirmed.
It annoys me that publishing such a deliberately dishonest story will almost certainly not be punished in any way.
