Note from the teaching team: This bug was reported during the Part II (Evaluating Documents) stage of the PE. You may reject this bug if it is not related to the quality of documentation.


Perhaps phone numbers could be extended to more than 3 digits as I believe that 3 digit phone numbers are reserved for emergency services and should not technically be in the contacts of a journalist as the persons in the contact list are for this purpose stated in 1.2 "Contact these persons for interviews or collaboration."
