   Looks like they forgot to attach the picture -

   Title: file photo
   Description: ‘television producerMark Burnett answers questions at a new conference in Pasadena, Calif.’

   if that is it, I wouldn’t say it is an English Fail, just good web etiquette as the publisher have provided a description for the picture for those that don’t/can’t view images (e.g. mobile phones etc).

   Then again when did July have 67 days? And he must have been using a time machine as it is only 10th July here in Scotland.

   HA! I think we should base the whole year on July. June 30th would become July 364th, unless it was a leap year.

   Well, they also missed a comma in the first sentence didn’t they? I remember my junior high English teacher’s rule about “date, rest of sentence” or is that another one that’s been given up for the sake of easier typing like the last comma before the “and” in a list… as in a, b, c, and d versus a, b, c and d.

   Anyway, there’s at least one good fail, if not two.

     In this case, a comma wouldn’t be correct after the date following any standards, since it’s modifying “file photo.” It’s not “On xxx date, xxx happened.”

   I believe it’s been given up, though I still hold on to that Oxford comma.

    CJ: The “In a” is referring to the file photo, not to January.
