1. Who has TCM hired to write and proof copy?

All Eyes on Sharron Tate. Sharron? "A young, 22-year-old hopeful"? Have 22-year-olds been known to be old?

2. I didn't even catch that!

I simply copied and pasted it in my post, and missed the misspelling! You are SO right: does TCM not have spell check or editors or proof-readers?

[CBHagman]

3. Yeah, they misspelled Kenneth Branagh's name the other week.

Of course this type of thing is fairly common online. There will be mistakes anyway -- there always are -- but I have started seeing truly clumsy and easily avoidable typos in the headlines on, for instance, the AOL website.

Since TCM is all about movies, though, you would think there would be a little more accuracy.
