The New York Times corrected an article about USA Today’s recent re-design to properly name “James Bond’s boss.”

The Sept. 13 correction (one of two on the article), reads:

“An earlier version of this article misidentified James Bond’s boss. His boss is M, not Q.”

The reference to Bond came in the Times’ fourth paragraph in a comparison of USA Today’s  “glassy high-tech suburban headquarters,” which the Times said is “reminiscent of the offices where James Bond receives his orders from M.”
