if material mistakes or errors are made you correct them under written oath usually within 30 days after the Court Reporter delivers a copy of the transcript to the witness

Does a witness do that after a Congressional hearing?

But in today's world of televised hearings, once you smear someone on live TV, damage is done.

Updated | FBI Director James Comey attempted to go public as early as the summer of 2016 with information on Russia’s campaign to influence the U.S. presidential election, but Obama administration officials blocked him from doing so, two sources with knowledge of the matter tell Newsweek.

Well before the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) accused the Russian government of tampering with the U.S. election in an October 7 statement, Comey pitched the idea of writing an op-ed about the Russian campaign during a meeting in the White House Situation Room in June or July.
