Simple mistake of one word for another is a long way from sloppy research.
That's a massive assumption you are making.

what? correcting history, just because it was someones fart ?
Huh? You'd prefer they leave the mistake?
Yes, because the whole article is crap, and changing the most obvious
details doesn't help - but it makes it harder to use the article as an
example about how bad it is, that can be understood by Joe Average.
Evan, I perfectly know the urge to correct such things. It's the first that
surfaces in my mind. But I also learnd that interventing and correcting a
few things isn't helpful at all.
The author will go ahead and write the next one with the same sloopy
research and again earn the money, while yll you get is at best a soulless
