>>>Ever notice how the word “canceled” is misspelled? Even by major news sources?

In fact I did notice that and started to correct the misspelling. Then stopped because anybody doing a search on that title before posting the same article might not find the changed title.

OK, I missed the headline. Canceled is indeed the preferred spelling, but cancelled is considered acceptable, according to my dictionary. But then they use canceling. Let’s at least be consistent.
