Solution

The correct option is A said
The correct error is option A. In headlines the word 'said' is replaced by colon ( : ). Option B is not an error as it is used in the correct place. Option C is not an error as quotes are place inside single inverted commas. Option D is not an error as 'has' here is a part of the quote and thus cannot be omitted.
