Radial Buttons for Radio Buttons

(New to this site based on the NYT citing / sighting—“Analyzing Eggcorns and Snowclones, and Challenging Strunk and White” June 20, 2006)

I heard this in some streaming audio online and had to google it immediately.

Here is the link I found most helpful / insightful.

So is this an eggcorn or just an error?

Thanks for helping this newbie,
