Well-known publishers Time Inc. had the clever idea of creating a new site to attract young women. As such companies do, they spent a lot of money and effort selecting and planning the stories they would publish, setting up the website and so on.
Then they spent a six-figure sum buying a full-age advertisement for their new site in the Wall Street Journal.
This is the ad they published. It appears they forgot to hire a copy editor to check it before it went to press.
Oops.
