People make the same critisizms of mainstream journalists as metsguy234 is making as well, and their just as wrong for doing so.

Who else is there to watch the journalistic record, if not us?

"They're", Ohms. Not "Their just as wrong", "They're just as wrong." Am I bad for criticizing your grammar? :p

He does that often, i've learned to ignore it. :p

(Actually, I've always ignored it, from everybody. It reads the same, heh)

Heh, it's funnier though, for Ohms because he's a moderator in the first place. I wonder if he ever changes a correct "They're" in somebody's post to "Their"? :p

I don't edit the content of other people's posts. Ever.
If there's something in someone else's post that needs that much attention, then I'd delete it and PM the person.

Thanks for totally derailing the subject though. I appreciate it.
:rolleyes:

That would make him a derailer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derailer).

I say "Yes, you are, Coach" ...We can't all be English Maygars;) a raised-finger-of- reproof smiley, here.

We should be looking for substance, not style, in these forums...if we all start slagging each other's typos, we'll get to where nobody ever contributes anything!

Thank you for reading michaelg123789's post of 'interesting'!
Other, similarly-phrased posts you may see in the future are:
"aaaah."
"thought-provoking"
"intellectually stimulating"
"a thrilling read"
"enthralling"
"A real page-number-link-clicker"
"hmmm"
