Do I need to point out the error here? How about I just give you a hint as to the problem with this caption from Yahoo! Movies:
There’s a misspelled word, and it starts with an S. If you’re a Yahoo! writer or editor, I guess I’ll have to come right out and tell you: The word is sheriff.

I’m glad you’re enjoying Terribly Write. There’s no shortage of material to point and laugh at from Yahoo.

In fairness to the editor, there is an awful lot of text in that screen shot. Three words? It’s almost inevitable that an error is going to slip through.

You’re right. Given the odds (and the fact that this is on Yahoo), it’s a miracle that only one word was misspelled.
