			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>THERE is a word that anyone who has ever worked as a sub-editor is particularly wary of: public.</p>
<p>So very easy to miss out the ‘l’ in it, and, boy, are you in trouble. ‘Gordon Brown addresses pubic meeting’. How nice.</p>
<p>Looks like there is another we better start paying more attention to. ‘Finally’. Substitute an ‘a’ for the ‘f’ and ‘i’, and you get something quite, um, different.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-720" title="dec1" src="http://www.chindu.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/dec1-150x79.jpg" alt="dec1" width="150" height="79" />Admittedly, that is a rather thick feat for any sub under normal circumstances, and quite unheard of till now, but someone did manage that at the <em>Daily Express</em> last week. Result, this headline:</p>
<p>‘Can Dec anally match Ant?’</p>
<p>Here’s the how and why of that story on <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/mediamonkeyblog/2009/sep/01/express-ant-dec-headline-error" target="_blank">MediaMonkey</a>. Yep, definitely one for the scrapbook.</p>
