yeah,none of us are perfect in english for that matter....but a newspaper certainly cannot afford to make such mistakes,IMHO.i remember my dad used to encourage me to read the newspaper to improve my command of english.i'm afraid i won't be telling that to my own kids if this is going to be the state of affairs :-S
