Yahoo News Corrections and clarifications
• A cartoon (published in the newspaper on 29 April 2023, and online the day before) about the resignation of the BBC chairman, Richard Sharp, did not meet our editorial standards, and we decided to remove it from our website. The Guardian apologises to Mr Sharp, to the Jewish community and to anyone offended.
• The chief executive of Arts Council England is Darren Henley, not Nicholas Serota, who is the chair (Simon Rattle is right: it’s a political choice to stifle culture, 27 April, Journal, p3). Also, the organisation does not spend “£446m a year”; in 2022-23 the total was £629m.
• An article stated that $6bn equated to £4.8m; the latter figure should have been £4.8bn (Netflix spends $1.5bn a year on British-made productions, 27 April, p27).
