One of the things I like about online journalism is that it allows one to easily fix stories being written/published.
If one published a story with errors or typos in the newspaper, it'd be impossible to recall all the printed copies in order to make the necessary changes to it. The same goes for if one simply wanted to reword a certain sentence or paragraph to make it sound better. But with a computer, any changes can be easily made, and that makes everyone's job a little easier.

It also raises the question of what is the "official" version for archives... websites end up having to save multiple versions for posterity (and in case of lawsuits!)
