Harcourt interpolation

The Harcourt interpolation was a scandal of Victorian London in which a rogue compositor inserted an obscene remark into a page proof for ''The Times'' newspaper, in the middle of a speech by a leading politician of the day. The addition was not noticed until after the first edition had been printed and efforts to recall the copies were not entirely successful.
==Article==

In January 1882, as Parliament was not sitting, ''The Times'' included lengthy verbatim reports from speeches given by politicians outside Parliament. On Sunday 22 January, the Attorney General Sir Henry James and Home Secretary Sir William Harcourt went to Burton upon Trent to open the St Paul's Institute, afterwards addressing speeches towards a crowd of between 7,000 and 8,000.〔"The Home Secretary and the Attorney-General at Burton", ''The Times'', 23 January 1882, Second edition, p. 7.〕 Harcourt made reference to a by-election campaign then being fought in the North Riding of Yorkshire (polling day was Thursday 26 January), in which the Liberal candidate, Samuel Rowlandson, was a tenant farmer. ''The Times'' decided to print a verbatim report of both speeches in the edition to be published on the next morning, Monday 23 January 1882.
''The Times compositors were in dispute with the newspaper management〔Peter Brown, "Who will the journalists blame now?", ''The Times'', 29 September 1992.〕 and the report of Harcourt's speech printed in the first edition read (the '/' represent end-of-line in the original):
The interpolation was not noticed until after the first edition had been printed and distributed. ''The Times'' sent out urgent telegraph messages to recall all unsold copies.〔Bob Clarke, "From Grub Street to Fleet Street: an illustrated history of English Newspapers to 1899", Ashgate Publishing, 2004, p. 240-1.〕
