MSNBC Airs The Daily Princetonian’s Misquote of Antonin Scalia
Posted By J.K. Trotter On December 12, 2012 @ 9:25 am In Uncategorized | 2 Comments
Yesterday we noticed The Daily Princetonian’s unfortunate misquote of Antonin Scalia’s comments on homosexuality during a Q&A at Princeton on Monday evening. (The article was soon corrected.) Then, last night, MSNBC aired the same error beneath the paper’s logo. We imagine the scene at the Prince’s newsroom went something like this:
Unnamed Prince staffer #1: Oh my god. Our logo!
Unnamed Prince staffer #2: Our error. The error.
Unnamed Prince staffer #3: No. Nooooooooooooo!!!!
Unnamed Prince staffer #4: Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
Disembodied voice of Shirley Tilghman: It was the only quote that anyone cared about!
Disembodied voice of David Petraeus: The only quote that mattered!
Exeunt.

One mistake can be accidental. Two mistakes are malicious.
