Says?

You'd think that one thing you'd learn in journalism school is how to use tenses in a sentence.

"Paul Neuman says..."

Paul Neuman be dead.  Paul Neuman SAID.

He not be sayin' nothin' no more.

  3. Another thing that journalists don't seem to comprehend is the difference between "less" and "fewer".

    Is it wrong that I immediately assume rampant idiocy in the entire story whenever I hear something like "less people"?
