Boston Herald totally Faulked up
 
New weapons a dream for Marshall Faulk - BostonHerald.com, about Kevin Faulk, has a headline saying it's about Marshall Faulk.

I imagine this will be fixed by the time most of you see this post during the day. Still, it's appalling.

New weapons a dream for Marshall Faulk - BostonHerald.com is an alternate link, if they fix the first one.

You should probably find something real to get upset about, mistakes like this are easy to make.

Not trying to defend Karen Guregian, especially after that Assante Samuel article...but it is usually the editors that write the headlines, so she gets a pass on this one.

It's not the initially-making that's the problem -- it's the not-catching.

And again, it's an easy mistake to make.

You have to understand how our brains process information when it comes to reading. It's completely human nature to see a correctly spelled word (albeit the wrong word) and move on making a subconcious assumption that the word is correct.

This sort of stuff happens in newspapers all the time but because the Herald pissed everyone here off you guys are just being petty.

I don't love or hate the Herald, but I don't think it's an "easy" mistake to make. Even reading over it fast.

Kevin Faulk wishes he was Marshall Faulk.
