Accidental WP reference

(1/1)

Paul_Maul:
The NY Post is too cheap to use a human proofreader, so they rely on inadequate spell checkers. The result is tons of non-spelling mistakes that go unnoticed. The latest example is in a story about the late One Direction singer Liam Payne…

mikecho:
Funny! And he probably didn't even know what he was referring to.

No, the guy who wrote the article wrote “Kool” cigarettes, but a spell-checker evidently read that as an error and “corrected” it to Kook. 😂

I think you missed the point. It likely wasn't the writer, but the AI (or lack thereof) which caused the typo/reference.

mikecho:
Oh, I see. Thanks for the correction.
