Proof BostonNow listens to the local blogosphere

Hey, gang, they're hiring a copy editor.
Via Sean McCarthy, who, at no charge, copy edits the mistakes in the ad.
I've done enough copy editing to last me a lifetime, thank you very much.

Ahhhh, editing
Ahhhh, editing schadenfreude. So delightful.
Sean missed a typo
The ad currently states, "BostonNOW seeks copyeditor..."
Sean suggests it read, "BostonNOW seeks copy editor..."
I amend that with, "BostonNOW a seeks copy editor..."
Can a fact checker be next?
You gotta love a headline about terrorists getting the death penalty in a country that doesn't execute, followed by a story about a tanker fire closing ramps to the Bay Bridge in SFO accompanied by a file photo of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Then again, they could make it like a contest: the first person to discover that the job does not come with 16 weeks paid vacation and an unaudited expense account wins the position!
A contest!
Find a mistake involving your first name and win $1,000.
