Not Separated At Birth: Condoleeza-Susan Rice Edition

That moment when you realize you've used the wrong person's photo for your article...

As an editor, one of my worst nightmares is using the wrong name in a headline or the wrong photo to illustrate the article. So I do sympathize, but I also have to say that I get a little bit of a smirk out of this because honestly I do know the difference between Susan Rice, who is considering a run against Susan Collins in 2020, and Condoleeza Rice, who helped engineer the never-ending war in Iraq.

The Hill, on the other hand, failed to make that distinction. and it was caught by journalist Peter Jukes, who posted a screenshot to Twitter.

They've since swapped that image of Rice, but with no notice of a correction. I think that was probably worthy of a correction, since all Rices don't look alike.

For future reference, The Hill, here is Susan Rice, who is not Condoleeza Rice:
