Did he REALLY say that?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-15937664

Paul McMullan, a former 'journalist' at the now-defunct News of the World tells the Leveson Inquiry in London that he felt "slightly proud" of a story that he wrote that led to a paediatrician being wrongly accused of being a paedophile - chiefly, I'm assuming, because the paper's readers couldn't tell the difference between the two words. I say readers: I mean the people who looked at the words on the page, rather than read or made sense of them. The look of disbelief on Lord Leveson's face is understandable. For myself, words fail me at the crass stupidity displayed here.
