You know how I ranted about the article the other day that called Pamela Courson Jim Morrison's 'late wife'?

Well, I wasn't about to let it lie easily, so I found the correct page on BBC News Online to point out mistakes. I wrote the following:

In the article referring to the Doors losing the right to the name, you say that Pamela Courson was Jim Morrison's wife. She was not. They were not married, although she claimed to be his wife in the wake of his death. Jim Morrison did not get married to anyone in his lifetime- the closest he came was a pagan ceremony to an entirely different redheaded woman.

I got an email (mostly automated, but whatever) today to say thisL

Thanks for spotting that mistake, it's much appreciated.

Best wishes

AND if you go to the page now, it says 'late girlfriend'. OMG, the BBC NOTICED AND DID WHAT I TOLD THEM TO! MY LICENCE FEE JUST MADE SENSE!

*skips away happily*
