    It’s stupid, but also it’s meaningless. People don’t actually enter URLs into web browsers anymore, nor do they pay any attention to the URLs that are plastered over everything. They google the name of the thing they want to access, and “the right view” is easy enough to find.

    Worse, it’s a podcast, so it’s website is just an ad for the actual thing, just like the background is, so it’s not like she actually cares if anyone goes there. She wants them to search iTunes or whatever for it.

    Laughing at her for the meaningless typo while she successfully markets her shitty podcast is just smug and empty catharsis. It’s patting yourself on the back for noticing that your neighbour forgot to turn their lights out when evacuating as wildfires convert your entire neighbourhood to ash.

      Right? This is just a typo. Who among us has never had a big typo. It happens. Plus you can make the subdomain anything you want so they could point wwww to site if they wanted and realistically most people just leave off the w’s anyway when typing in a domain.

      There are actual egregious problems caused by these people but everyone in these comments jerkin themselves off over this just look desperate.

        It’s just a typo, so to make a story about it is a stretch. However it goes to show the lack of professionalism and proofing that happens. So, it’s not a big deal, but it’s still newsworthy to a minor extent.

      So it’s shallow AND pedantic.

      As the article shows, it was also aired on Fox, Newsmax and other conservative outlets, not just her podcast.

        You’re caught up in the “hurr durr, she so dumb”. I didn’t say she showed it on her podcast, I said it’s an ad for her podcast, and it’s all the more successful for everyone sharing the image. Any of us who had never heard of it now know it exists, and what it’s called.

        Again, no one cares about the URL. They’re not going to use it. They’re going to google the name and successfully find it, because Google finds it just fine. You’re laughing at trivialities while she’s successfully getting her shit out there to audiences.

          Not to mention that I hadn’t heard of any of this until this post.

          Almost feels like when someone would make an error in a reddit title for engagement.

          Damn, dude. I just thought it was funny. Does everything have to be deadly serious around here?
