Dead Line
Editing has become a lost art. Or, perhaps, there are simply less people employed at it.
I usually leave mistakes alone, even when they're made at allegedly professional websites. But look at this piece today at Deadline Hollywood:
Donald Trump Demands AG Jeff Sessions Shuttter Russia Probe Immediately As Manafort Trail Begins Day 2.
Wow. Two mistakes in one headline. Really obvious mistakes.
Or maybe I'm looking at it wrong. Maybe I should note they got 14 out of 16 words right.

It is Shutter with the extra t for Trump. And Manafort trail may turn out to be true if he wins. It could be a rabbit trail.
I get that the trail did not get corrected. But shutter you think would have been corrected. I just typed it twice with an extra t and both times it came out alright.
Yes, it's pretty obvious you let a machine do your thinking for you.
