Really CNN?

Dear CNN:

Three strikes. You're OUT!

It's not "Winnepeg" (twice).

Nor is it "Winnpieg".

It's WINNIPEG dammit!

For a so-called "World leader in news and information delivery", you really should invest in an atlas.

Or at the very least, a spellchecker.


Geez....

    They should use firefox or Chrome instead of IE.. built in spell checks (THANKGOODNESS!!)

    I'd like to say "unbelievable" but really, it isn't... and that in and of itself is just sad too.

    You would not believe the spelling errors I see on documentaries on History Channel or on the news. HELLO! Can you imagine what they would have done with 'Saskatchewan'? lol

    At first glance, I thought the graphic on the bottom said "News Boom"!

    Oh my goodness. There really isn't any excuse for that. Someone isn't doing their job.
