maybe I just expect more from ppl who report the news.

if some webmaster had some crappy ass site, I'm sure you would have no problem telling them so.
What's sad is that quite probably, the writer had great spelling and punctuation in his reporting, but whoever did the copy-editing fucked it all away. Before anything is published, (in lots of cases this includes internet publication), it's copy edited at least once, and often twice.

But it's always the writers who catch the shit for mistakes. After all, it's their name attached to the story.

FUK KOPEE EDITERS!! BASTARDZ!
