Even the caged birds would have caught these Tribune fumbles

In the Friday edition of the New Albany Tribune, sports editor Mitzi Greenwell refers to a 1980’s-era star Floyd Central wrestler as Craig Allstock.

Actually, the name’s Alstott.

Elsewhere, marring an otherwise entertaining and thoughtful review of T.R. Reid’s book, “The United States of Europe,” guest columnist C.R. Reagan quotes Illinois Senator Barak O’Bama.

That’s Barack Obama.

He's not Irish.

And, boldly heading a full-page ad for Coyle Dodge are the words "Diamler Chrysler."

Daimler, guys. It's German, which is similar to English in the sense that all language is Greek to the Tribune.

Sad.
