Proofreading is a dying art, wouldn't you say?

Man Kills Self Before Shooting Wife and Daughter

This one caught in the SGV Tribune the other day. The Editorial Room was called and asked who wrote this.

Well taking about grammar, McDonalds stuffed up a few weeks ago. Their expensive billboard, TV and Youtube advertising campaign for lamb burgers said "Mary had a little lamb fries and a Coke". Apparently it caused quite a sensation in the US as "lamb fries and a Coke" is not what they meant, they missed a comma after the lamb
