- CNN当前并非由“透納廣播公司”所有。CNN官方资料显示,它现在是华纳兄弟探索旗下的一个部门。

- “CNN Pipeline”早已不是 CNN 的现行在线收看方式。它是旧服务名称,CNN 现在通过 CNN.com、CNN app、订阅或电视运营商提供观看。

- CNN’s own current fact sheet says it has 37 bureaus worldwide, not 42.
- CNN’s weekday schedule no longer starts with “CNN Headline Express.” CNN announced in January 2025 that the 5–6 a.m. ET slot is “5 Things with Rahel Solomon.”
- The network was MSNBC, not “MS NOW.” Contemporary 2021 ratings reports identify CNN’s competitor as MSNBC.
- The host’s name is Christiane Amanpour, not “Christine Amanpour.”

- This is outdated. Covilhã’s current mayor is Hélio Jorge Simões Fazendeiro, not Vítor Manuel Pinheiro Pereira.
- This infobox entry is outdated. Covilhã’s municipal president is Hélio Jorge Simões Fazendeiro, not Vítor Manuel Pinheiro Pereira.
- The municipality of Covilhã has 21 civil parishes, not 31.
- This understates the number of primary/basic schools. The municipality’s official education pages list many more than three basic schools.
- This is incorrect. Reference works place Francisco Álvares’s death in or after his years in Italy/Rome, not on a voyage to Brazil.

- 神功皇后通常被现代学界视为传说人物,这一“200年-270年”的摄政年代也被认为是虚构的传统纪年,而非可确认的历史在位时间。
- 这条年代表把霍斯羅夫一世的在位终点写成238年,但权威参考资料显示,提里达梯二世在217年就已获授亚美尼亚王位,因此霍斯羅夫一世不可能一直在位到238年。

- This is too late. Sources record common onion cultivation in China centuries—possibly millennia—before the 19th century, so the statement is inaccurate for East Asia as a whole.

- This cover is not from January 2020. Marvel lists Guardians of the Galaxy (2023) #1 as published on April 12, 2023, and Marvel announced the Alex Ross 'Timeless' villain variant program for 2023.
- 2019 was not Doctor Doom's first solo series. Marvel had already published the solo title Doom 2099 beginning in 1993.

- The cited review does not say glucocorticoids cause 5–15% bone loss every year. It says bone loss can be 5–15% during the first year of treatment, with slower loss thereafter.
- The evidence does not support a blanket claim of 'no correlation' between MRI findings and pain severity. Recent cohort and systematic-review data found small but real associations, especially when multiple degenerative findings are present.

- This is too absolute. CNN architectures had already moved away from an all-3×3 design years before ConvNeXt; for example, GoogLeNet/Inception (2014) used 1×1, 3×3, and 5×5 convolutions.

- The March 13, 2009 financial filing valued Bernard Madoff's 1969 Rybovich fishing boat at about $2.2 million, not $800,000.
- That March 2009 filing put the couple's total assets at about $823–$826 million, including a $700 million business interest, which implies roughly $123–$126 million outside the business—not $138 million.
- The 2019 settlement required semi-annual accountings and disclosure of deposits or withdrawals over $500—not reports on every purchase over $100.

- This overstates steroid-related bone loss. Reviews and guidelines describe about 5–15% bone loss in the first year of glucocorticoid therapy, followed by a slower decline thereafter—not 5–15% every year.
- This death toll is vastly inflated. The best-known Vioxx estimate was about 88,000–139,000 excess cases with 30–40% fatality (~35,000–56,000 deaths), while published celecoxib evidence does not support adding another ~140,000 deaths.

- This is outdated. Barbara Picower stepped down as president in February 2024; Deepak Bhargava became president, and the JPB Foundation was renamed the Freedom Together Foundation in 2024.
- This conflates the timing and amount of Picard's suit. Court records say the complaint was filed in May 2009, and the original complaint alleged more than $6.7 billion in transfers, with at least $5 billion identified as fictitious profit; the amount sought was only later increased to $7.2 billion.

- The inflation-adjusted figure is too low. Using the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ CPI-U annual averages, $20 million in 1920 is about $312.1 million in 2024, not $237 million.
- This misstates the Supreme Court's holding. Ponzi v. Fessenden was about whether a federal prisoner could be brought into state court for trial with federal consent, not a ruling that 'federal plea bargains have no standing regarding state charges.'
