Claytonstret94, who's right when a writer contradicts published material? That's easy to answer. You need to look at this case by case. Maybe the author made a slip of the tongue or just made an honest mistake. Once it's clear he didn't make a mistake, but delibertaly contradicted the published material, then he statement is correct ant it retcons the pulished material. It could be that he's correcting a mistake in the published matreial, or that he's retconning stuff or whatever other reason he had.

But Word of God is always the only source for canon, never the fans. Thinking that Word of God loses its authority once something is published is silly
