Will Shortz made an error

New York Times crossword puzzle editor Shortz goofed on the Sunday, March 23, edition by listing “Herod” as “king in 1 B.C.” Any biblical scholar knows he died in 4 B.C.

Besides that, Shortz could start using the more academic B.C.E., in my opinion.

Wonder if anybody has called him on this yet?
