At least Dan Quayle can spell Potatoe*….I wonder if the media is going to play up how stupid CNN is.

*Yes, Potatoe is a correct spelling, just as colour is a correct spelling of color.

had outsorced the job to India

seems to be ubikwitious.

Just another reminder, Firefox 2, Mozilla’s great browser that is free and stable, now has spell check like features for writing. Even as you write in these blogs or email or forms, misspelled words are underlined in red. I don’t know if IE has anything out yet like this.

Worth a try for those who might need it. Plus you can add words to your private lexicon.

Ya know, most designer software does not have spell check…why? I’ll never know.

Graphics techs: a case of a staff that’s doing the jobs Americans won’t do?

Fued for thought: If they had outsorced the job to India, this would not have happened.

Anderson Cooper is a pantywaist. With all that sugar in his tank how can he present the misspelled news while basking in his “spent” diabetic coma?

Maybe they spelled it correctly. They just didn’t spell it out:

It happens to better than CNN grunts. And not to forget that it's Olbermann and not Olberman, now that his stature is more gigantic.

I have to question the timing. Maybe just an exclamation mark to CNN’s apology over the Osama / Obama thing, to prevent a smurf riot.

You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in CNN, as Coop’s graphics bitch.

When “CNN” is misspelled on the logo, then we have a serious problem.

How about misread? I was walking through CNN Center in Atlanta about 15 years ago. There was going to be a Grateful Dead concert nearby and a couple of Dead Heads were walking by. One looked up at the CNN logo (go take a quick look at it yourself) and said aloud “What’s CW?”

True story — I have a witness.

it’s part of that “giving the gavel to the kids” thing the left is pushing.

More likely than not, it was just another embarrassing example
