It starts with ":
which doesn't appear in your string.
the : is at the end of 'Updated: ', I think. That did make me think
about the " in the regular expression above, which I didn't remember.
Just for completeness, here it is again, as copied:
>>> m = re.search(':\b(\w+\s+\d+,\s+\d+,\s+\d+:\d+.m\s+\w+)<', str(string))
