Not a day goes by without seeing mistakes in spelling and grammar in our daily newspapers. That’s a given, since all of them that remain (and especially the ones that publish three times a week!) have cut back on editors and turned reporters into tweeters and bloggers. Most of these information compilers had little ability to write correctly to start with, and now they must file more articles with less time and less, perhaps nonexistent, oversight on what they write.
Look at this one:
Mariners announce tenative 2017 regular season schedule

What’s galling here is not only that the reporter misspelled “tentative” to start with, or that it somehow slipped through the editing process and went online with an error in the headline. It’s that the original post was updated, re-posted, and the error in the headline remains. Good grief, Charlie Brown! Can’t anyone get it right anymore?
When in doubt, don’t guess. Hire an editor!
