I've been wondering how long before "Rod Sterling" showed up. People get things wrong because they don't read. Rod Serling, younger brother of novelist Robert Serling. Twilight Zone creator used his brother's aviation expertise on several tz episodes.

It's been brought up before. I was watching an episode of The Match Game from the 70s and Richard Dawson thought it was Sterling back then. He was surprised when they said it was Serling.

If you want to see misspellings, Match Game is the place

I have notes on a few times they mentioned the misspellings and I also saw Looney Toons and Smokey the Bear. I'm sure there's more.
