[jdl1279]

Can't send PM's to more than 20 recipients

[natehate]

i'm not saying i have the best grammar or spelling
but i'm also not a journalist
and it seems to me EVERY article i read online lately has major grammar or spelling errors. hell even missing words or half sentences
at what point did people say "ah fuck it"
with magazines and news papers going towards the online publication more and more i don't think "oh it's just an online publication" floats as an excuse
i cant be the only one this bothers?

[mclaincausey]

Completely agree. Professional writers should know how to write. Subject/verb agreement and so forth. It bugs me, my first degree is in English.

[jdl1279]

Everything you said and then some Nate So long as the proletariat refuse higher standards it will continue the downhill slump though

It's sad but true. In my job I deal with the media every day, and it's very apparent the getting the story out first is considered far more important than getting the story correct or well written.

It disappoints me on multiple levels.
