Sometimes, though, a gem can be found within its pages. It’s rare — but if you’re lucky there will be something to amuse you, be it an outrageous news item or ignorant Letter to the Editor. I give you as an example yesterday’s paper:

Purdue's student newspaper, The Exponent

Monday’s edition featured an article on Mehmet Ali AÄŸca, the person responsible for the creation of the bulletproof Popemobile. The editor obviously wasn’t paying too close attention to yesterday’s FRONT PAGE articles as they passed his eyes, as someone got sloppy with their cutting and pasting:

Selected article from The Exponent, Purdue's student newspaper

Did you catch that last sentence?

Mr. Alito, we want answers.

Update: The error was addressed in Wednesday’s edition:

Exponent correction
