Wow. Will and while aren't even close to the same spelling, and yet one is written as the other in this opening sentence to "Judge orders release of video of guard kicking homeless man in Ottawa police cells" on Yahoo! Canada News on December 2, 2010. What's also remarkable is that I spotted this error at 3:30 p.m. on December 1, 2010, and the article's publishing time stamp is 12:20 a.m. on December 2, 2010. There's a name attached to the article, but as of 2 p.m. December 4, 2010, the error remains.
