Police looking for vehicle Obama?
The http://topix.net "local" page for Radford, Va., has a startling lead on a story carrying this headline:
Pedestrian killed, police looking for vehicle - Topix:
The lead:
"Radford, VA August 19, 2008 Pedestrian killed, police looking for vehicle Obama due for campaign double-dip in Virginia Energy a hot topic in local congressional race Jury selection begins tomorrow for Radford capital ..."
It's all the result of some software glitch -- under insufficient adult (human) supervision -- pointing to the actual "Pedestrian..." story at WDJB Channel 7, and apparently picking up other headlines into one garbled "sentence." http://www.wdbj7.com/global/story.asp?s=8864397
But even the pedestrian fatality story alone is wrong. It's from Henry County, which isn't Radford, either.
Who's in charge? Topix news page says the item was "posted by roboblogger."
Time to go back to news written and edited by humans!
