ABC Hires Reporter Jack Meoff: Nominative Determinism At Work

by | 9th, May 2010

GOOGLE says that ABC News has a new blogger with a very interesting name: “Jack Meoff.” It’s nominative determinism, readers.

As our Man in LA writes:

No, seriously. The byline showed up on Google searches this week and was spotted by the website RawStory.com.

In actuality, the blog in question was written by the alphabet network’s White House reporter Jake Tapper (whose brother Didja Tapper works for Hustler magazine – kidding).

Nobody knows how this semi-pornographic slip-up happened.

Raw Story submitted a request for comments from Google, ABC and from Tapper himself. All went unanswered.
