SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 News) - A new school zone sign painted on a downtown Salt Lake City street needs a spell check.

The sign reads "S-H-C-O-O-L."

ABC 4 contacted UDOT for an explanation, and a spokesman said the error was most likely committed by a third party contractor hired by Salt Lake City.

A Salt Lake City spokesperson did not immediately respond to ABC 4's inquiry regarding the spelling error.

Isn't it weird that so-called college educated journalists are pointing out a mistake that a laborer who probably makes $10.00/hour made. KTVX, along with other local TV stations, constantly misspells words in their crawls, headlines, weather casts, etc. Do a better job being a journalist, before you have to do a 5:00 news story on yourselves.
