Shocking! Government simplifies and combines words "lie and cheat" into "Oversights". Linguists and media charmed.

Michigan Strategic Fund under fire over incomplete, overstated data on job creation | MLive.com:
"LANSING — The Michigan Strategic Fund is under fire from both Republicans and Democrats after an audit report found it gave the Legislature incomplete and overstated data on jobs created from business incentive programs.

A report released Tuesday by Michigan's Auditor General found that the MSF, part of the taxpayer-supported Michigan Economic Development Corp., hasn't been verifying that certain grant recipients are meeting program requirements or creating the jobs they promised.
Those "oversights" led to overstated jobs figures in its annual Legislative report."
