We all make errors, and sometimes, those errors can make us look like idiots. Especially when that error gets published out in the world, even though it likely went through a host of gatekeepers to get there. And that's why we're here. To shame those gatekeepers with an internet scarlet S. I don't expect you to be perfect. It takes a village, and every village has an idiot. But for the sake of your company's reputation, hire a village that has at least one member THAT CAN SPELL.

We've encountered this error before. Role = part an actor plays. Roll = of the dice. I feel like we should expect more of a respected news magazine. Even if they are probably overworked and understaffed. Y'know?

(Thanks, DI, and MJ for asking her to send it to me!)
