As for what jouro doesn't check the final version of their article? Most of them I'm afraid. The whole thing goes via several other people (eg production editor, sub editor, editor) all of whom can change anything and 'outrank' the original journo.
No it does not take much effort, which is why it's a bit shady when you say you will mention the site and then don't. It's your integrity that is questioned when you say one thing but another actually gets printed. So you should have pointed out to your 'higher ups' that you had given these undertakings and wanted them to be honoured.

My cynicism of journalists is precisely why I did not participate.

Bit ironic that the phone call came so soon after the question was asked as to who had won it?
