If I have made a false statement, you would be able to quote it.
Do you think that the corrections log actually undoes the impact on people who read the false report?
Do you think most people check that log to see if the previous articles they read have been corrected?
The claim you made was that they own their mistakes and correct them.
If your argument is that they quietly admit their mistakes somewhere very few people look, then I will agree to that. If you can find me denying that, you can quote me on it.
My claim is that this doesn’t correct the mistake. When you misinform someone, the only way to correct the mistake, is to let that person know, and give them the right information.
The corrections page might have been a good faith effort at doing this in the print era, but it definitely doesn’t work in the digital era.
More importantly, what you are referring to as ‘corrections’ are simply edits they make. That has nothing to do with owning one’s mistakes.
They can easily be wrong about or present something in a distorted way, and that won’t make it into a ‘correction’. I don’t see how you can call this behavior ‘owning one’s mistakes’.
Bear in mind, we are commenting on a post by Piotr Wozniak, who does in fact own his point of view, and explains exactly why he says the things people accuse of being pseudoscience.

It would be better for you to address the argument rather than engaging in ad-hominem. That is the usual guideline around here.
