Et Tu, Jason?

 January 5, 2025

 

I was giving the Post-Dispatch a hard time about its lousy proofreading, but I just got a jolt.

 

Today's editorial is taken from the Washington Post, and mentions an "overdo" policy correction from the Trump administration.

 

I don't know if the Post got it right and the Dispatch changed it, or if this horrible proofreading is everywhere.

 

Jason Anders, editor of the Post, care to weigh in? 

 

In the meantime, I'm going back to the editorial to see if I can get beyond the first paragraph.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one whose reading is disrupted by the lousy editing that's been happening for at least 3 decades.
After the 3rd error, I'll stop reading. I'll dismiss the author, the editor, and the media source as unworthy of my time and attention.
I used to send in corrections to my newspaper, but nothing changed.
