"Kanye West shared a few thoughts on Thursday (Sept. 20) that have been sitting on his conscious..."
WTF? On his "conscious?" Wrong word, idiot. "Conscious" means you're "aware of your surroundings."
The correct word is "CONSCIENCE," which is defined as "an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as a guide to the rightness or wrongness of one's behavior."
These are two different words, people. NOT the same word. It's like "jibe" and "jive." People use these interchangeably, but they're different words with different meanings.
And then they wonder why so few people respect mainstream media. This is a mistake an eighth grader would make. Adults in the field of journalism should know proper word usage.
More and more, people in the media get jobs because of cronyism and nepotism. Somewhere out there sits a great writer who tried to freelance at Billboard but never even got a reply from the editors. Ahem.
I did a screen grab of this mistake so it could be immortalized on the Web.
