According to Wogan this morning, the ITV News said something like--the importance of Obama's vote cannot be underestimated.

Whoops!

It put me in mind of a similar clanger dropped by a Cheshire local paper many years ago, when I lived in that fair county. In an advertising feature, it said something like--if you want brilliant choice and service, you can do no worse than visit Bloggs' Garden Centre.

I wonder if they had to apologise.

"Overnight between 2000 and 2008 the crime rate went up 50%"

Thats one long night.
