Pathetic ...

... this may explain more about the decline of newspapers than anything else I've seen: AngryJournalist.com.

Everytime I turn in an article, I turn in clean copy with no errors, just to have my editors f*** with it and add grammitical and style errors.

These new kids pray to the altimate pagen for thanks in the internet. Because, without the internet, nobody would talk to them.
Hmm.

    No kidding! New kids, old kids, young kids, ancient kids — all the kids on the slopping block — laying down errors in their comments, egregious overslights, stupidoes, S-V Agr., and grammar that needs to be taken to the grim-reaper cleaners. No wonder journalism's gone to hell in one heck of a hurry. Pathetic? You're far too circumspect, Frank. Ah, well, at least we lived during its golden age (since we seem to have descended into the epochrisy of neanderthuggery). I had to go and read some of Roger K. Miller's posts to wash that filth right outta my mind (since I am, indeedly, left-handed or right-brained; and, natch, we all know what Bill "The Spaceman" Lee opined concerning that phenomenon . . .).
