Um ... "how all for gadgets work" ... maybe "how all the gadgets work"?

What is a Possible Body?

What is a possible body? Someone reported a body was found on the beach, and it's being investigated. It will be a body or it will be something else, but someone reported a body was found on the beach, right?

UPDATE: Possible body found in beach area of Caesar Creek Lake under investigation http://t.co/4XziEGu2g9

Just before that they got it right:

Doris Day, huh?

Later corrected, but still ... Doris Day - seriously?

Pope recognizes four Americans, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Doris Day and Thomas Merton.

and the correction, 21 minutes later:

That was Dorothy Day earlier the pope recognized, not Doris Day.

Cheef? Got Spell-check?

OMG, "cheef"?! Spell-check would have caught that. Also "ouplan"? It's this way in the article, too. Sad.

Child boy?

What is a child boy? Maybe a boy child? Did they start to write child, then changed it to boy without removing child?

Singular/Plural issues

Singular/Plural issues ... basic Elementary School knowledge. "Samples test" or "Sample tests". It's wrong in the linked article's title, too. Turns out three samples were tested ...

I think they meant detectives.

"following fatal" ... what? Crash? And describes is misspelled, too. Bonus! Eleven words, people, only eleven words to proof. You didn't even spell-check. Sigh.

Oh, Newsweek ...

It's bad enough I can only read five articles per month, but then you omit a teeny tiny word from a very short tweet:

— Newsweek (@Newsweek) September 1, 2015

"Marissa Mayer will 'limited time off'" -- will what limited time off? "take"? She'll "take limited time off"? Was that so difficult? Sheesh.
