besides typos... I also do the "another words" when I actually mean... "in other words,' nobody is perfect.

I don't care to fuss about capitalization all the time either... and I have (hvae) dyslexic fingers....

My problem is, these are published articles on a REAL newspaper wire or news service... silly me, I get confused when they use the wrong words.

We all make mistakes, it's just that I don't get paid for making mine as a journalist, or english major... THEY DO.

happy new year.

I copped the elusive BA in Journalism from Iowa in 1972. My mom has a BA in English and MA in American Literature from NE Missouri. She was an English teacher in high school for many years. I worked as a broadcast news reporter (where spelling doesn't count) for a while untill I got tired of working for chump change.
