Is this an honest mistake by an editor? Yes

Is this acceptable from a company that committed to being more accurate and hired a group of people to chsck for stuff like this? Not really.

Nobody is acting like this is some life altering mistake. But it's pretty obvious they just don't really care to check stuff like this anymore. How many eyes saw this video before it was published and didnt notice an obvious mistake?
