Not to us for sure but the message should be shouted long and loud.

These errors make it difficult for me to read the article, although in this case I’m glad i did.

Another thing that drives me nuts is the omission of the “s” in plural nouns (or if it’s there, it’s preceded by an apostrophe).

Ah, well, language changes. Is “alright” in the dictionary yet? I’m afraid to look...

Stop trying to use “bias” as an adjective. All of you.

Yes, it's impacting me.

The circle is not yet complete. Once bailouts are provided select failed media outlets, the revived entity will be The Ministry of Truth.

You probably already see this, so my pointing it out is probably unnecessary. But unless more of us say it, I fear many will be afraid to admit it once it happens.

Acid rain might not be the bet allegory, especially for a "conservative" journalist. Acid rain was the non-existent reason that we had to stop burning coal and petroleum products before AlGore discovered non-existent global warming.

Would it be incentivizing you to do something different?

Irregardless, it is anathemical to use “bias” as an adjective.

A while ago I worked in the mainstream media myself, both print and radio. There’s no need to bore you with my experiences, other than to say that 1) this article is correct, both in general and specifics and 2) it’s actually worse than portrayed.

Pure propaganda, dishonesty is not bias, it’s democrat party and communist activism.

Wouldn’t that be “gerunding” ? < VBEG >

At least Calvin has an excuse for such poor grammar and weak vocabulary, he’s only 7 years old.
