Title: Bad Times
Post by: maxsims on December 02, 2009, 07:02:20 PM

Has anyone else noticed the appalling English in the Manila Times's on-line ad for its journalism school?

And that the Manila Times Language Institute cannot decide between 'equalizer" and "equilizer" and so employs both?

I think it will be much better if you can bring this matter directly to their attention, maxsims. That way your criticism could be taken in a constructive spirit rather than viewed as a destructive rant.
