So it’s a massive day for the commercial real estate adviser Colliers International. At least CityAM (accidentally) thought so.
The financial freesheet’s night production team filled its entire City Moves section with repeats of the appointment of one Mark Phillips (he actually joined the company in April), illustrated by a picture of a woman.

The entries, mostly made up of garbled text, are a case of placeholder copy not being replaced. The copy – garbled Latin – also appeared briefly in the online version before the error was spotted and it was taken down.
All the blame goes to the City Moves editor, bylined as Tom Welch, a one-off replacement for business features editor Tom Welsh perchance?
