More proof for more proofreaders

As much as I try not to pay too much attention to it, I guess my background in Journalism makes my eyes hypersensitive to errors on the printed word.

Take for instance this caption that I saw on a Yahoo article on the Inaugural Ball of the President of the United States.


Looks pretty normal, until you get to the part when they talk about what the FLOTUS wore.

I think they meant to say "wear red during the Inaugural Ball," and ended up with two "thes" in one sentence.

If they had a proofreader, I'm sure he or she have spotted that.
