          huh, did they give the envelope to Warren? Nope? Then not their fault. Someone backstage is to blame.

          As a news organization, you should not change quoted text to suit your preferences. PwC did not write "apologise."

          Wasn't that immediate - 3 people made speeches before it was rectified.

          Bean counters bugger up OSCARS, and I wonder how much they got paid (or rather wont now!)

          perhaps that's why it says "error" and not "tragedy"
