BBC Style, accuracy and grammar
I have often said that the three best things to come from Britain are the Beatles, Marmite and the BBC. But sometimes I wonder about that last one.
The BBC's on-line presence seems to be making more and more style, accuracy and grammar mistakes. I often report them to their feedback site, including this example which pertains to my greatest fear - general public acceptance of apostrophes misplaced into plurals.
"One proposal that was approved was a requirement that unopposed candidate's for the company's board receive a majority in order to be appointed." [link]
Or perhaps I'm just very old-fashioned.
