Globe gets familiar

Just for argument's sake, let's pretend that John Kerry and Kerry Healey divorce their spouses, then marry each other. Would Kerry Healey change her name to Kerry Kerry (and then go challenge New Hampshire's Dudley Dudley to a double-name grudge match - unless, of course, Dudley Dudley then one upped her by marrying former wrestler Dudley Dudley, thus making her Dudley Dudley Dudley)?

That's probably what was going through the mind of the Globe copy editor who, no doubt at the very brink of deadline, wrote

Kerry's spouse nets $5.8m in stock sales

to headline a story today that was about Sean Healey, not Teresa Heinz Kerry.

Via Blue Mass. Group, which notes that boston.com has changed the headline to Healey's spouse nets $5.8m in stock sales.

If the Dudleys hyphenated their last name, they could both be Dudley Dudley Dudley-Dudley.

Ow.
