I noticed a headline on one of the major news services where they had clearly made an error in grammar. Rather than making this thread about just one news outlet, I thought we can go ahead and make it about all of them.
Is there a real headline that made you laugh? Some error made by a mid-level copy editor that should have been caught?

Post it here -



It will be hard to post links since many of these will be corrected over time so just post the headline and where you saw it.



This was posted on a FoxNews website -

Did BP Play a Roll in Lockerbie Bomber's Release?


Are they sure it was a roll and not a bagel or a piece of toast?
