Oops: Sportsmen's Lodge not closing *

Unfortunately, the Daily News this morning bannered Dana Bartholomew's story saying the hotel and banquet center in Studio City would close. It's still big on the website. Miscommunication — but utterly wrong, says the owner. More details here.

* Update: The original story has been pulled from the DN site, and a new one posted for tomorrow's paper. The new story comes across as a second-day story, not a correction, and doesn't explain today's mistake. Owner Richard Weintraub insists Sportsmen's Lodge will stay open and the current lease holder says it will close when he leaves.
