Coffee recalled for mislabeling a decaf.

Now, giving someone deaf under the guise of caffeinated is enough for a stiff flog, but more importantly was this article written by AI?

Is #USAToday using #AI to write their articles, not just headlines. The paragraphs do not flow, there are spelling and grammar errors, and no one talks like this. The article is a mess.

USA Today itself reported this in 2020 on its own change in leadership:

"Reed, who is assuming the reins, is respected in the industry as a dealmaker, but has less operational experience, Doctor says.

'He hasn’t been an operator. He knows the business inside and out after 30-plus years,' [...] 'So there’s leadership questions. There are questions of how is he going to execute.'"

Ceasing to endorse a Presidential candidate seems to answer this question.
