Paskistan? What’s next - Undia? Lazy, lazy

This is ridiculous - One agency (UPI) carries a report with a typo, calling Pakistan, “Paskistan”. And then it spreads:

Starts from here - UPI.
Then: The Washington Times, The Daily India, Political Gateway, Monsters and Critics, North Korea Times

You do a google search for Paskistan, and… this

It’s understandable for a random website to make a mistake, but for online publications to make such stupid, lazy mistakes, of just copy-pasting a UPI report, is ridiculous.
