Showing 13th Paragraph of CNN.com article
The headline of this article featured on the front page of CNN.com caught my eye, just as a headline should. But as I read it, I couldn’t believe my eyes. In the 13th paragraph the words “they” and “they’s” show up where the words “the” and “they’re” should have been. They’s???
Error:
West Valley police say Josh Powell is they only person they’s looking at, but they are not calling him a suspect in his wife’s disappearance. They say they have no physical evidence of foul play.
Correction:

This group is called SEIU. And they have an American dream. Unfortunately, they spelled “American” wrong.
Here’s a quick post. Since when does 1-1 equal a win?
Am I that behind in sports?
Is this even a typo? What is it?
Ok this isn’t a typo or grammatical error, but it’s just too ironic not to post.
So enjoy!
(joking aside, we pray this situation gets resolved as quickly as possible)
