巴菲特的名字被拼錯了173次

????他是世界上最富有，也是最常被人們提起的人之一。然而，那些把他的每一句話都奉為圭臬的財經媒體卻時常弄錯他的名字。

????他是沃倫?巴菲特（Warren Buffett）。“Buffett”中含有兩個字母“t”。但許多人只用一個“t”，寫成了“Buffet”，結果聽起來好像是一場可以敞開肚皮吃的自助餐饕餮盛宴。

????沃倫?巴菲特觀察（Warren“Buffet”Watch）博客自3月份推出，迄今它已經捕捉了173次拼寫錯誤（當然實際肯定不止這個數）。

????犯錯的包括大多數主要金融出版物、廣播、白宮、國會、大學和巴菲特最近收購的一家奧馬哈報紙。沒錯，美國有線電視新聞網(CNN)及其旗下的財經頻道（CNNMoney）和《財富》雜志（Fortune）也把巴菲特的名字拼錯了許多次。——萊克斯?哈里斯

Buffett's name misspelled 173 times

????He's one of the world's richest people and also one of the most quoted. And yet, the business media that hangs on his every word routinely gets his name wrong.

????It's Warren Buffett, with two "tt's". Use one t -- as so many do -- and it's "Buffet," which, you know, sounds like one of those all-you-can eat things.

????Warren 'Buffet' Watch captured 173 mess-ups since its launch in March (there were surely many more).

????Offenders included most major financial publications, broadcasters, the White House and Congress, the Omaha paper Buffett recently acquired, and universities. And yes, CNN -- and CNNMoney and Fortune -- made more than a few appearances. -- Lex Haris
