happen every day (or month.); saying, ""We love...; Parliment Hill

-- "U.S. media has mishaps, some fun with Obama visit" on Sympatico / MSN News on February 20, 2009

Did the U.S. media's mishaps occur as frequently as the errors in this article's first few paragraphs? Unless the entire sentence is within the parentheses, then the period should go outside the closing parenthesis: happen every day (or month). Why are there two sets of opening quotation marks? Just one is needed. Finally, in the photo caption, Parliment Hill. Are you frickin' kidding me? Parliament needs an a after the i, eh.

Why focus on media mishaps abroad when there are plenty at home? FYI, the article currently has a timestamp of 20/02/2009 10:28:05 AM, which is almost twelve hours after my screen capture's visible timestamp. The errors are still there.
