Today’s dodgy news article can be found here.

Spelling errors of this magnitude are pretty inexcusible.

he probably became invested white travelling through Belize

instead of

he probably became infested while travelling through Belize

About all I can say is that I guess the journalist used a spell checker.

News faff 1

I am sick of the lousy reporting that passes for journalism these days, so I’ve decided to complain here. After all, what’s the point of having a blog if you don’t use it to whinge? :)
Today’s news faff can be found here

Note the sentence:

Witnesses said the plane, operated by Brazilian airline TAM , crashed through a wall and hit a fuel station.

closely followed by:

Earlier reports that the plane hit a fuel station appear to have been inccorrect.

Well, I guess it’s good that they’re correcting their own reports…
