For one, that's not a spelling error (all the words are spelled correctly). It's a grammatical error. And not even one due to ignorance: it's merely a typo.
Second, you should expect it to happen much more in the days of low paid journalists, miniscule budgets, fewer (if any) copy editors, tiny advertising margins, and attempts to churn tons of articles as fast as possible to capture eyeballs. This isn't the 1970's Washington Post or New York Times. What we know about editors and proof-reading is almost obsolete in the web these days.
So we're better off appreciating the value (if there's any) of the content itself, instead of letting these kind of things distract us.
