Ironically, in an article about freesheet City AM ditching its sub-editors, Media Guardian’s Leigh Holmwood faces a subbing error of his own:
London business freesheet City AM is to axe eight jobs, including its entire subediting, team as part of a streamlining of its operation.*
I can’t get City AM from where I am. Will someone please start some sort of City AM typo-watch scheme?

Update: The typo has been corrected













Nice spot, Dave.
City AM is notorious for it’s editing mistakes anyway so we should be seeing loads more in the near future. It’s just a bit worrying when Media Guardian starts making mistakes too!

Well I have been reading CityAM since it launched and the funny thing is there seems to be about the same number of typos and grammatical now. Point being it has not got worse since the sacking of the sub-editors.
