We’ll blame the heat for this slip getting past the sub-editors.
As we learned ourselves more than once last week, working in this heat means it is far, far easier for the odd typo or two to slip by. So that might explain what was published in yesterday’s Sunday People.
Under a small enough story regarding a bridge funding ‘scandal’ somehow the writer’s name was replaced by, well, a very interesting snippet of a sentence.
A piece of an e-mail or IM that was written, or pasted, into the byline box by mistake is the most likely root of the problem here but what we really want to know is what the rest of the discussion was because it sounds very interesting, much more interesting than the story it is attached to in fact.
