Obviously we pride ourselves on our accuracy here at CMU, but it has come to our attention that we made a fundamental error in yesterday's CMU Daily. We suggested that the 25p saving that consumers will make after the pending cut in VAT when buying an average 12 pound CD at HMV could be spent on a Fudge bar and a Chomp. This was based on an assumption that Fudge bars retailed at 15p while Chomp bars sold for 10p. It has been brought to our attention that Chomp bars now cost 15p each. We were unaware of this price increase, hence our mistake. We apologise. I will, of course resign. But only if I get to walk straight into a highly paid job making telly programmes for Universal Music.

An apology
CMU apologises for an error in its previous day's Daily, which wrongly priced Chomp bars at 10p when they cost 15p.
