Sometimes,

There are obvious mistakes in on-line and cable TV episode guides and Little House on The Prairie has one of these errors. Check your guide when the episode, "Barn Burner"" is on, my on-line and cable guide (Time Warner) say the following:

"Barn Burner": "A bigot is accused of torching a barn and assaulting Adam. Obviously, it is Andy who is hit by Mr. Larabee when Mr. Larabee comes to the Garvey's home enraged asking where Johnathon is.

Most of the time, this incorrect data is the result of it not being correct from the channel provider, which is usually, "Tribune Media Services" I was wondering what processes would need to be done to correct the data?

unfortunately a lot of sites like TV.com are run by petty dictators with an oblique sense of power, and their editors will not allow any criticism or editing of their work - and all of those sites use each other as referencing "proof" of their accuracy so they will probably never be corrected.
