Like father like son? No

I must take The NY Times to task for one of the stupidest mistakes I've seen in this once-great newspaper. The story refers to Robert F Kennedy Jr. Here's the link:

Forget the fact that the Times thinks it's important what cologne Mr Kennedy is wearing. I may be biased here; I'm not a big fan of Musk. I prefer a light citrus scent, a scent for a man like me, a man who isn't afraid to stand out and showcase my unique personality. 

 

What grinds my gears is the subheadline:  

'Mr Kennedy, a long-shot Democratic presidential candidate with surprisingly high poll numbers...'

Where to begin with this. I'll try to make it simple as possible.

 

This is NOT Robert Kennedy!! This is his SON, Robert Kennedy Jr!! 

Robert Kennedy is a long-AGO shot Democratic presidential candidate!!

The anniversary of that tragic occurrence is today! June 6th! 1968!!

 

How could the Times make such a stupid mistake?
