Spellcheckerz Don't Do Context

Spellcheckerz Don't Do Context

Bopping around on Comcast's home page this morning, I ran across something I found kinda interesting:

The video was about the sixth human foot to show up on the shores of British Columbia. A left foot this time. (However, the B.C. Coroner's office is saying #6 is a hoax now.)

Still, I don't think they suspect a Grizzly bear as the killer.

I think whichever "professional journalist" wrote the headline was looking for the word grisly.

It's a good thing that Authorized Journalists have all those layers of fact-checking and oversight, ain't it?
