Good lord! You'd think the legitimate media would know how to spell... or at least run their stories by a copy-editor.

John, you're right, I read that wrong! That does make a lot more sense. Not that $42,000 is anything to sneeze at.

I don't think either story says "each." I think it implies that all six were worth $42,000. That makes each worth $7,000. That seems a lot more reasonable.

Clearly the wench was there to create a distraction.
