EDIT: Turns out it was not intentional, see below, now fixed on the post.

(original): Given how well-written the rest of the article is, I have to believe that's deliberate.

Typoing "thought leader" as a way to poke fun at them was deliberate, typoing it in a way that's also slang for a prostitute was completely unintentional and something I wouldn't have done if I knew. Changed it to something else for that reason.

I always thought it was slang for a woman who wasn't ashamed of her own sexuality, but of course people (not you specifically) would manage to turn that into a pejorative :/

Plenty of English spelling simply doesn't make sense, "thought" is a good example of that. I'm ambivalent on vigilante spelling reforms, will have to think about it more. :-D
