I'm pretty sure they do NOT have dedicated proofreaders. When the journalism business started dying editors and support staff were the first to go. To be fair it goes way beyond Dawgnation: I read articles from national publications with lots of mistakes..It also doesn't help that every reporter of every genre feels the need to get stories up ASAP.
William Shakespear, to many thou's. I know BA wants to write but it's not his strength.
I see it all the time now...whether it's a major paper, a local paper, or blogs. And you're right about proofreaders etc. They were the first to go.
I often joked after writing that I needed a profreader.
Not a fan of Karl Marx or the US Tax code.
Off topic but how bout Colquitt county giving it to Greyson IN Loganville!? Probst is a **** good football coach. That defensive tackle for CC Merrit is reaking havoc against a massive O line for high school standards. 4 of 5 guys on that Oline have power 5 offers. Haven't heard or seen much out of Pappoe. The Packers are very very physical and play assignment football. Nyquan Washington is a junior 5'10 corner with some D1 offers and he's shut down the 6'5 stud receiver for the Rams. Several deflections and a pick. 26-14 in the 4th. I wanna see the backup qb for Greyson because we've offered him.
He’s not much of a writer, but I can’t stand Cowherd any more.
“I’d think if your paid to put something out”
you’re*
“Jeff and BA are the best in the biz at there profession”

Keep grinding my friend.
Once again my bachelors is not in journalism like the people paid to do it. But I corrected myself in the next msg clarifying there and you're. Like your pal I just didn't read my post twice before I sent it. Anything else?
Nope. Good day sir.
Manuel i used to hate but he’s grown on me.
No one really writes any more it seems like. The one she I don’t like I just refuse to read
One of my least-liked talking heads. I guess he probably does do a little writing here and there...and I'm sure it sucks as well.
No, there is not a writer that I despise. I am surprised at some of the strong feelings here. I am glad that we can challenge them on specifics but I do not get the contempt for the person.
Not a lot of writing anymore , people have gotten lazy as H in the digital age, they had rather watch and or listen than read. Therefore good writing has met the dust bin of history and we are left with a bunch of bloviating talking heads. Reading is important because it allows the reader time to compare and contemplate truth and reality vs what is being communicated. Visuals and audio stimulate an impulsive response which by nature is most often wrong . Long live Whata got Loran !
Cy Brown. His articles were almost always rehashing what other dawgnation authors wrote. I didn't learn anything reading his articles. However, his articles had really really good article titles that made me want to click on them, but I always checked who wrote it and wouldn't click on his as I knew they were insight and information free.
But he had, by far, IMHO, the best dog videos. Since he left the quality of dog videos has dropped remarkably.
