Beware of Spell Check
This article made me giggle. As a former teacher and occasional grammar corrector I had to share!
PROVO -- It was a bad day for Brigham Young University's student-run newspaper.
Monday's edition of The Daily Universe ran a photo of several leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at this weekend's General Conference. A caption below the photo read, in part, "… the Quorum of the Twelve Apostates…" instead of Apostles.
The paper apologized for the mistake and gathered up as many of the 18,000 copies that it could. It attributes the mistake to a spell-check error made by a copy editor.
