      Says a pundit. Who doesn't proofread. @neiltysonhttps://twitter.com/neiltyson/status/1008427135818579968 …

      If pundits tells you something is true, and you don’t have the critical thinking skills to evaluate their statements, then you are putty in their hands, as they shape your world view to their will.

      Yup. One slips by every now and then. But given the spontaneity of the medium, I’m surprised it doesn’t happen more often.

          I proof read my undergrad dissertation many times, as did friends & I still managed to submit it with the wrong submission year on it. Thankfully i was marked on my critical thinking! If your biggest argument is proofreading, then that's pretty poor! #CriticalThinking

          Regardless of the human error the statement provided by @neiltyson is still valid, therefore I've no regrets for retweeting it. In fact I'm going to RT it again :)

          I only ever point out obvious typos if they are funny. And there have been some very funny ones, like once where lion became loin to great comic effect. Otherwise, meh.
