TAX DAY, 04/15/11: Atlas Shrugged Part 1

Whatever happened to proofreaders and grammer checkers?

First and foremost, I am not a Professional Writer.  No one pays me to spout off the garbage I write.  However, when I start getting paid for this crap, I may hire some child labor to proofread my rants.  They have to be better at spotting errors than what I see posted by professionally paid folks out there.

So, with that said...

What the hell is wrong with the our professional writers today?  Do we not proofread our own work?  Do we not have a proofreader or editor that reviews our work before it gets published on the Internet?  It seems like almost everyday I come across at least one article that has at least one grammatical error in it.  I always said I am going to chronicle them.  Well, I am fed up and ready to do so.  The first one goes to Lori Brown of WMCTV.COM for telling us that: "...but said they people at that Greyhound station..."  Hello?  Can I get a proofreader on this before I post it to the world?

If you have see any articles you would like to add, please email Ranting Thad. I will edit this post each time and add the newest ones to the top.
