BOSTON (AP) - A Massachusetts woman is generating online buzz for accidentally sharing more than she intended on The New York Times' website.
Christine McMorrow says she was using her iPhone's voice-to-text function to leave a comment on a political story Thursday when she was interrupted by a friend's visit.
She says the phone continued transcribing parts of their conversation and posted it online.
It starts out, "Zero optimism that the Democrats can ever regain," before shifting to a rambling run-on sentence with references to hard-boiled eggs, a visit to Cape Cod and a knee that needed to be iced.
