Oh, my word, yes. I have to pinch myself in order to resist the urge to print out errant articles, red-pen and post them back to their authors. Amongst journalists, spelling, grammar, vocabulary and comprehension are all clearly deficient. I'm most disappointed in flagship publications or national broadcasters, such as the ABC.
Have at them, I say!
Having said that, I take many shortcuts in posts and seldom proofread. Do what I say, not what I do.
