Grammar mistakes and typos on Yahoo news
I just read four random news articles on Yahoo news and three of the four had grammatical errors. One was missing a connecting word in a sentence. The other two had used the wrong word. In one article, the word was literary instead of literally.
Do you all not have editors or even AI that checks the articles? ****, I use the grammar check on Microsoft Word, and it catches almost everything. It is irritating that journalists on Yahoo are apparently not using these tools or even people to proofread their work.
News is getting progressively sloppier. The writing on Yahoo news is often rambling and unclear. I have read several articles here where the author starts talking about a person who has commented on something without even introducing the person and their title which would explain why their comment or quote is relevant to the news story. Please for the love of God use some editing software or real people to edit these articles. Quality is more important than quantity.
