Subtle journalistic error

From The Washington Post: "Syria ranked as the 173rd worst -- out of 178 -- in the Reporters Without Borders group's most recent index of press freedom...."

The error almost slipped by me. I'm pretty sure they meant the sixth worst, a.k.a. the 173rd best. It's similar in principle to a double negative.

Gacked from Nefaria (again)

1) Find out the song that was #1 the week you were born.
2) Find that song on YouTube.
3) Post that video on your wall without shame.

This one doesn't sound too bad now. (Would someone like to return my YouTube favor by telling me how to embed on LJ? I tried copy-pasting the embed URL, but it came out blank.)

ADDENDUM: Thank you, Nefaria and Cerulean.
