At least this reporter got it right: a town has a Marshall, a county has a Sheriff. It seems in every TV show and movie set in a small town there's a Town Sheriff. It's one of the details the entertainment industry seems to always get wrong. But, then, that's expected since all us little guys live in "fly over country" -- which is anywhere the "elite" don't go -- and getting details purposefully or sloppily wrong is another way to show we're unimportant.

Perhaps the “sheriff” confusion comes from Mayberry?
