accha: to be fair, Qatar Living too did pick up the story and run it on the site; journalistic etiquette would then require that once QL knew the reports were not accurate, they would own up to their error and publish this latest update as an open and referenced 'correction'; rather than gloss over their own part in it completely with statement like 'there'd been reports swirling in the media'; QL too was part of the swirl and the media and they can't just suddenly act oblivious.
