Pittsburg, CA, but Pittsburgh, PA

[Mr. Tom Jones]

The city in Pennsylvania is spelled with an "h", to the glory of the Scots.

I bring you this PSA because a number of highly paid, downfsckingstate ad agency types, political consultants, and video production people produced a spot for a WV Supreme Court candidate that referenced the "Pittsburg Tribune-Review."

And yes, it ran on a number of TV stations in WV. Just. Like. That.

(It's my understanding the spot was hurriedly fixed the next day, but still, WTF?)
