Current headline at the Atlanta Journal Constitution: NRA ranks cheer Chaney: VP attacks Kerry's gun rights record.
"Hey, who's this Chaney guy?" you ask. Is the National Rifle Association celebrating Lon Chaney's performances in Phantom of the Opera, or The Hunchback of Notre Dame? Plausible, certainly, but no. As it happens, the NRA was lauding a presentation by U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, whose name the A.J.C. managed to get right in the body of its article, but to misspell in the headline.
Now there's a copyeditor who's gonna have himself torn a new one later this morning.
