Also from The Register is this story of a data quality boo boo on the Marks and Spencer website (the offending page has been removed from the site, but el Reg kindly kept a screenshot).
The text of an on-line catalogue entry described an item for sale, emphasising its “modern curves, soft-look styling and hardwood feet”. Unfortunately the text was presented alongside an image of a model clad in underwear and a smile. Readers of the Register did indeed admire her modern curves and soft-look styling, but the error in the information presented was at best embarrassing for M&S.
