Week-old Fox News.com ACORN story has yet to fix grammatical blunder headline
Edited on Mon Sep-21-09 09:29 AM by TheeHazelnut
If you want a quick indication of how stupid Fox News and the people who read their website are, check out the headline on this story that was posted back on Sept. 15th:

"Fallout From ACORN Scandal May Hovers Over Other Community Groups"

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,550603,00.html

Apparently, no one in the week since this story appeared has noticed this glaring grammatical blunder. Maybe Fox News fans can't read.

3. That's just sad.
Of course, other, more reputable, news sources also make grammatical errors on their sites too. It's not usually in the headline though.

Welcome to DU.

4. Blame it on the oligarhy that is Fox's leadership.
