[OT] misspellings

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

There's a tv station in Birmingham Alabama which (since the end of analog tv broadcasts) is the only over-the-air news broadcast locally, and they usually misspell AND mispronounce something at least once per newscast. They've reached a new(s) low : in appending the legal copyright notice to the end of newscasts, they misspell "television". They say they are a "televison" station.

As a legal notice, this had to originate in the legal department, then go past the general manager's desk on it's way to the news director to be appended to each news broadcast.

I had the same allergic reaction as when i see typos in the OE manual.
