I'm seeing more and more uncorrected grammatical and spelling errors in the DBM.
I'm thinking this may be a result of 40-50 years of dumbing down of our educational system. First they got the primary and secondary systems. Those dumbed down kids enter college, graduate and get a job.
Their employer may, at first, have objected to their dumbness. But eventually the employer realized that ALL the kids were like this.
This has now been going on long enough that the reporters and the editors are all dumbed down. And the blind can't lead the blind.
FWIW, I've noticed this seems particularly bad in articles written by television station employees. That may be caused by TV stations hiring a pretty face first and journalistic ability second. Sad.
It’s hard to imagine that some universities have journalism schools and still they produce graduates who become journalists unfamiliar with the English language.
I prefer that they produce graduates who can become excellent writers and reporters.
