If everyone is gonna post TNT screw-ups, I will too. Do you think she spells her last name with an “ei” in her actual name and an “ie” in her twitter handle.
Let’s get Mike to investigate.
TNT minor error

Everyone makes typos. So, when pointing out another person’s typo, it’s best not to make one of your own.
The sentence “Lets get Mike to investigate” has a typo on it.

While it should say “Let’s get Mike to investigate” it may have been more app to say “Maybe Mike Elgan should investigate”.
In fact that really would be a novelty with Mr Elgan. Elgum doesn’t actually do reporting, he is not a reporter. He coined the phrase “Yellow Journalism” not as a racist statement but to describe his method of writing. He steals another’s work and implies that it is is own original work when it is merely the work of another reworded to give the appearance of his work rather than something that has been plagiarized from real journalist.
This is why he is so suited to this format of TNT that he uses, it is merely taking another person’s work and putting your own spin on it. At least with TNT though he doesn’t claim it to be his own personal work and gives credit to those that have really taken the time to do the background work and then write the words.
In fact while your comment about typo’s and highlighting Ghostdog’s own typo is possibly a jibe at the writer or at Total Drama it simply reinforces the difference between a blog and something that is supposed to be a professional production.
The least that Mike Elgan could have ensured for Lisa Fleisher is that her Twitter Handle and details were correct but wait! He was too busy “Fucking Up” the rest of the production!

Nah, I didn’t mean to insult the writer. I love #TD and all it stands for. But let’s stick to the egregious errors committed by TWiT. Typos are hardly worth reporting.

Also, to Ghost Dog’s credit, the headline does indicate this was a “minor” error.

That describes the whole current TWIT networks Modus operandi.

Sadly, both elgum and sarah are re-reading some else’s news. (sorry sarah fans.) I gave up listening to them and just use their links to the articles they are reading from (with minor changes). I can get the news better that way.

“a typo on it” or “a typo in it.”

“a typo in it”
I was wondering how long it would take before somebody noticed the Easter Egg 😉

Nope, Let’s (the contraction of Let us) is absolutely correct. Unless he went back and edited after you posted. Let us investigate.

If Elgum cared he’d show up 20-30 minutes before hand to make sure everything was prepped and ready to go, like a professional (instead of a hack).

Don’t worry Manimal, there will be an Inside Lisa on December 3rd announcing that Elgum will be leaving TWiT, that he has decided that the urge to travel the world has become overwhelming for him!
Gum has removed the reference to TWiT off Google+ with the exception of the words “News Director” because it can be utilized in the future for another “Grift”. He also updated his Facebook page (it is his page) and a couple of weeks ago TWiT became ‘past employment’ and he switched to referring his employment to “CEO of Elgan Media Corp”, their tax scam so they can use their travels as a tax write off!
Mark that date in the calendar, it should be that week.
In fact from comments that Leo has made in passing, very likely without realizing it, he is regretting his shitting on Tom Merritt far more than he lets anyone know. Let’s face it, I don’t really care much for Tom Merritt but his DTNS is a slick production compared to TNT and unfortunately it should be the reverse situation.
Elgum has been trying for the past two weeks to make Leo break the contract and has given him multiple reasons to dismiss him. I suspect that there must be a clause that locks Gum in with a penalty for either side.
If you look at the “last week on TWiT” b-roll that they used. After the Speedball clip was removed two weeks ago, this one on Sunday did not have any “TNT” present in the roll at all.
Something stinks at TWiT Central and it isn’t one of Padre’s rancid Guff’s!

I think Elgan knows what’s up. This is just a job for him. He shows up and checks out. He doesn’t want to put in any more effort than a cashier at Walmart. He’s basically serving his time. They would be better off giving TNT to Chase Nunes who is all but shining Leo’s shoes to get on the network. At least then they would get some effort for their shekels.

Is Jason still stuck doing this after taking over for Chad on all of Leo’s shows? If so, well there’s the problem. One man can only do so much.
