HOL proofreading is truly a marvel to behold

How are they this lazy and incompetent with something so fundamental to their jobs? They seriously remind me of the shitty reporter who gets killed in Hot Fuzz over this.

The best/funniest/saddest part is that 6 hours after posting it they’ve either: a) not noticed it, or b) noticed it but didn’t bother to fix it.
 
I don’t understand why they’d get so mad when people would point out grammatical errors and then continue with current methods on proofreading. I’m horrified if I fuck up the spelling of a word or use the wrong form of affect/effect let alone put an easy one on print for hundreds of thousands of people to see.

For all of the “Grammar Police” shit I’ve given Deab & Co over the years it’s clear he simply doesn’t care.

More important to get the news out to his customers......🙄

They don't give a shit anymore.

And if I have to hear Dean say one more time how hard his job is I'm going to throw up.

Tip. If someone repeatedly has to tell you how hard they work, they truly aren't working hard because so many people question it.
This. He writes about and covers football for a living. I don’t want to ever hear about how “hard” your job is. Pathetic.
