Another article about that particular asteroid. There's a big difference between hit and miss. A difference of about 27,000km.

No, asteroid 2012 DA14 will not hit us next year

An asteroid about 45 or 90 meters across will give the earth a pretty close shave next year, passing earth by a distance of about 26,900 km but it will miss us.

Are we talking about the same asteroid here? It is hard to tell since you didn't mention the asteroid's name.
