-- "Undercover gaffe by police chief draws complaint" on CBC News online on December 9, 2009The article is about just one undercover officer, therefore the apostrophe is wrongly placed. It needs to be between the R and the S. If the article was about two or more undercover officers, then the apostrophe would be correct, but identity would need to become plural (assuming all the officers did not share one identity). The article was last updated December 9 - eight days ago - and the error is still there. No individual writer's name attached to the article equals no accountability.
