I think I have a new calling in life . . .
Meet and teach the author of this article how to write.
I know it's Kinston.
I know our paper shouldn't be held to the same standards as The New York Times.
But it pained me to read this.
I am still gritting my teeth.
Aside from the fact that it's just crappy writing in general, I am appalled by the errors I would expect from my former sophomore writing students.
I know my blog is not a shining example of grammatical perfection. I make errors. I probably make multiple ones. Some of you probably leave a reading of my blog gritting your own teeth.
But I don't write for the newspaper, dang it, and there should be standards. Has the press no pride?
Reall, Mr. Hill? Really?
As an aside, Corbin was a former student of mine, and I am thrilled to hear he's beating his battle with cancer.
