Does the Journal Star employ proof readers? Does anyone who works at the Journal Star read their own newspaper? Does the Journal Star employ people who can even read? The typos in this rag are unbelievable.
Today's "Local & State" section includes an article about State Senator Bill Brady's announcement that he is running for governor. It is a fairly interesting tidbit about an ultraconservative labeling himself a "mainstream conservative." In the last paragraph we learn that Brady is pro-life and that, unlike Blago, he does not support benefits for same sex partners of state workers.
The article ends like this:
Brady said government should encourage "procreative marital
That's it. Brady could be for encouraging procreative marital sex toys and Journal Star readers would be the last to know. How does a newspaper drop the ending to a story? This makes the PJ Star's inability to correctly spell Peoria's longest serving council member's name -in a headline no less- a mild mistake.
Perhaps I should give the editors more credit. Apparently they are aware that most of those who buy the PJ Star just get it for movie times and to see what's on sale at Kohls.
If your mind is too open, your brain will fall out. Warning: Names, identities, descriptions, and pictures have been changed and/or used to protect the innocent as well as the guilty. PollyPeoria should not be used or quoted as a source for your senior college thesis.
