There were a few errors spotted on
the CBC British Columbia homepage during January 2012. First up, from January 10, two very different spellings of the same highway. The headline version was correct. Then,
on January 19, there was a misspelling of
between that resulted in a nonword. How embarrassing. Then,
after clicking to that article ("
Winter storm warning issued for Metro Vancouver" on CBC News online on January 19, 2012), the first sentence had a couple of extra words in the first sentence. Then,
four sentences/paragraphs later in the article, the word
to is missing from
bewteen between
expected and
hit. Then,
on January 26 there was a subject/verb disagreement on the homepage - the boot (not the remains) is the subject, so
have should be
has. Finally,
also on January 26, there was an interesting - and utterly wrong - spelling of
users. Click an image to enlarge it.
