(In a stage whisper) “check the typo in your headline, madam.”

Snark? Everyone knows who she meant.

For what it’s worth, it was my attempt to be friendly and not snarky about it. It’s easy enough to make a typo mistake like that, and that’s true even when you work very hard at this, as she does. I recall the Washington Post misspelling Norman Mailer’s name in a headline once, a much larger error than this. And I assume everyone reading this would agree that the most serious errors are errors in assessing reality. So I’m sorry if it seemed like snark.

So sorry. Any writer would appreciate it. In spite of the emojis, meaning still doesn't convey. My attitude needed an adjustment so thanks for not joining me in that madness.

The Atlantic has been worthless for a very long time. They debased themselves utterly when they added Karl Frum.
