While writing this angry comment, did you stop to consider that maybe they did their job right and you're wrong?

Unless you're living in the early 1900s, "make do" is correct for today's English.

Conversely, I've only ever seen "make do" used.

"Make due" would make sense to me in the context where debt is a factor, for example, "make due on rent".

It doesn't make sense when you apply that meaning to how the sentence was written in this article.
