Fortunately Jean Jennings, the new top editor of Automobile magazine, is a good sport. We had to make some last-minute changes in our January Auto Talk section, and that led to a hasty re-edit of a piece on her promotion to the top job at the magazine - and a bonehead error on our part that described her as the brother of Paul Lienert. The last sentence on p.34 of our January issue should have said: "Ms. Jennings is the daughter of the late Bob Lienert, long-time editor of Automotive News, and her brother is well-known auto scribe Paul Lienert."
