There’s been an unusually large number of errors on the Yahoo! front page lately. Because many of those errors involved U.S. pop culture, common American idioms, and American spellings, I thought that perhaps a foreign government had taken control of yahoo.com. After seeing this, I’m convinced that the writing on the Yahoo! front page is not done in the U.S.:
For all you yahoo.com writers in Mumbai or Minsk or wherever you are: No American city has a governor. Boston is an American city. Therefore, Boston does not have a governor. Deval Patrick is the governor of Massachusetts.

I thought that was pretty horrifying. I can’t imagine making a mistake like that.
