News.com.au apologies for Star Trek goofs:

[Praxius]

This is kind of hilarious.... besides the original story they goofed on, their apology is just as bad, if not worse.... one would almost think it was on purpose.

Also, take a look at some of the comments left.... he he:

Apology:

We're sorry for claiming Captain Kirk was in command of Captain Picard's starship

.....User "Your Mum's Lunch" led the charge of those who correctly pointed out that after losing the original Enterprise to the Klingons, Captain Kirk was given the Excelsior Class Enterprise-B as a stop-gap measure until the refit of the Enterprise-A was completed.

Kirk's last ship was the Ambassador Class Enterprise-C.

Enterprise-D and Enterprise-E were in fact, the first of the Galaxy Class models and were under the command of Captain Picard......​

Among other blunders.

Almost? I'm 99.8% sure it was on purpose.

Hahahahaha!! That's great. I love it! Especially the "We also agree that Patrick Stewart is a handsome man, a sentiment expressed by several readers."

Thanks for posting!!!

Had a good laugh there, thank you, Praxius!

I really liked the picture associated to the article. Very appropriate.

lol, yeah my wife stumbled upon it last night and was reading it off to me..... halfway through I interrupted "Wait a minute, that's not friggin right either!" then I began to clue in that it was a big FU, especially after I got up to look at the screen to see Picard giving the finger and read the last couple of lines.

I recognize that image of Picard giving the middle finger. The middle finger is photoshopped in from a pose he was in in the episode Devil's Due. I think someone around here uses that image for their avatar.
