SUNDAY NEWS APOLOGISES TO STACEY JONES AND VODAFONE WARRIORS

Auckland, New Zealand, November 13, 2008 – Sunday News today apologised to Stacey Jones and the Vodafone Warriors for a story it published last week about the halfback’s new one-year contract to play for the club in the 2009 National Rugby League competition.
After Jones’ signing was announced last Friday (November 7), Sunday News ran a story on November 9 which carried alleged details of the contract he had agreed to.
The paper will publish a correction and apology in its edition this Sunday (November 16) which will read:

Correction and Apology – Stacey Jones – Warriors

“Last week we (Sunday News) published details of what we were told the Warriors had agreed to pay Stacey Jones next season.
“The Warriors’ management have contacted the Sunday News to tell us, and we accept, that our information was incorrect and that our figures were significantly overstated.
“The Sunday News regrets the error and apologises for any embarrassment it caused to Stacey Jones or the Warriors.”
