The AJC recently reported that some federal workers have been notified that they will be laid off on June 31.
Anyone bat an eye at that? Does this mean they are NOT being laid off? After all, there is no 31st of June. Not this year, not any year. But this raises questions regarding the AJC. The obligatory [sic] does not follow the date as one would expect if the error were in the original quote. Of course that would require that the AJC reporter actually caught the error. If we run down that rabbit hole we should also consider that the original was not in error and the mistake was introduced by the reporter. Either way, you gotta wonder if the Department of Education has really been doing anything to improve education in America.
