Reaping the worldwind?

From tonight’s PBS News:

“The events in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are part of their worldwind tour of several key battleground states over the next few days.”

Or maybe it was whirled-wind.

You can hear the sentence at the 2:07 mark in this story. Our household listened four times to make sure we were hearing what we thought we were hearing. If indeed we were, I say “Sheesh.”

A quick search shows that worldwind tour is not unknown. I would guess that the influence of worldwide is to blame.

At least they didn't say whirled peas.
