Dumbass newsies

[Darth Yoshi]

I know a lot of reporters and newspeople are scientifically illiterate, but come on!

This is from CNN, by the way.

LMAO!! That's funny!

Don't forget Hammer, Totoenkopft, and Awacs.

Donner und blitzen, that guy had more aliases than Manji had inches in his rifles!

And I'm sure I'm forgeting some of the aliases.

I believe Long Wang was also a Demios sock puppet. I wonder why the hell he tried doing such a thing.

Anyway, that's quite a funny error.

Also, the media makes two types of errors: The mistakes they'd realize after seeing them, and the errors that they wouldn't notice (Such as "Iraqis go to the polls to decide if Saddam gets re-elected")

They also had the shuttle travelling at "Mock 18" just before the accident....I guess this was a typo too
And FOX news had the shuttle at an altitude of "200,000 miles".....

Probably just a case of newsies typing too fast to proofread

"Captain, I'm setting a course for Earth... MOCK 18!"

"Hold on people, we're breaking the Pissing-Ourselves-Whilst-laughing-At-Scooter barrier..."
