The New Yorker’s home page title is shamefully sloppy:
National and world news, Profiles, culture, reviews, fiction, poetry : The New Yorker
The New Yorker — arguably the most precisely punctuated and copy-edited publication in the English-speaking world — would never use a colon like that (i.e., with a preceding space) in print. And why in the world is “Profiles” capitalized?

Who are these title-junk keywords aimed at? Google? Do you they really think that putting “breaking news” in their home page title...
--
Why "Profiles" is capitalized?. What does he mean by "Do you they really..."?
People make mistakes.
