"...WASHINGTON POST could care less..."


When an author cannot master this very simple phrase, that is when I stop reading.

I really really hate that same grammar mistake.

The other one I really hate is the popular non-word, “irregardless”, which is I guess a combination of irrespective and regardless.

One solution would be to completely avoid that awkward construction and write, “The Washington Post doesn’t care.”

Agree ... just another example of 21st Century "journalism."
