Wonkette
Can you spot the error in the above paragraph? It’s the subject of one of our favorite Post corrections in ages (which we can’t find online yet, sorry):
A Jan. 14 Nation in Brief item incorrectly identified the organization led by Isaac Newton Farris Jr. as the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonsocial Violent Change. The organization’s name is the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change.

I'd point it out but I hate you people some much I want to whack you with baseball bats of maybe drench you with a hose!
I cannot stop laughing.
Great typo. Readers here should also know that Mr. Wonkette hosts a mean game of Trivia, including: "Everyone Gets A Zero" rounds.

Brilliant find on Wonkette's part! Makes me think some copy ed assist. did that on purpose, for undisclosed reasons....
I just spit out my wine. That is HILARIOUS.
Perhaps the Post writers were thinking of the Rodney King Center . . . .
you've GOT to send this one to Leno!
I agree w/Edsdesk: this is too good not to share w/the masses unaquainted w/our beloved Internet..aka...Tubes. Please!! someone share this w/the Daily Show? or yeah, maybe Leno.
You know, I'd contribute serious ducats to a group with nonsocial violence in their name.
Even more if they solicited door-to-door. If you know what I'm saying...
Begs the question, "What would classify as SOCIAL violence?"
That is ridiculous! Someone to tell them that its the center for Antisocial Violent Change. I mean, "nonsocial" isn't really even a word, is it?
So it's sorta social, demented and sad, but social. Right?
You owe me a new monitor. Mine has just shorted out from being hosed with aspirated Diet Coke.
Anyway, isn't that just another term for the War in Iraq?
