And thus the paper ironically proves that that Bill is needed like holy fuck.

I had to read it four times. I was thinking that they couldn't possibly let a literacy article go out like that without proofing first. IT WAS ON THE FRONT PAGE.

Silly newspaper people should get a person to read over the stuff before it's printed...oh wait, they have someone. An editor. Apparently someone was sleeping on the job.

Editor FAIL!

Oh irony. I love you.

Illiteracy on the other hand is made of fail.

[mrsalemp.livejournal.com]

Illiteracy is bad. Very bad. Reading is fundamental :D

Clearly the legislation is needed urgently.

Icon love!

I'm curious how many people caught it...please tell me a lot. Please.

It took me a minute, but that might be because I expect headlines to be full of crap anyway, and therefore don't pay a lot of attention to them.

I started by wondering who Bill was.

[mrsalemp.livejournal.com]

I had hoped it was a test. That further in the article you would see "8 out of 10 people read this headline without realizing there was a problem. Literacy programs hope to boost compreshension and blah blah blah blah"

Alas.

Also, I just posted to TWNZ comm.
