That is how publishing is now..no editing, typos, missing second part of articles...my daily newspaper, now owned by Gannett, is the same way...gotta get costs down to compete, and, in the process quality goes down...
As a (now retired) trade press editor for more than 30 years I find the articles in SCD have become overly commercial and there are too many typos in them. I cancelled my sub more than a year ago. Example of a funny typo? When I picked up the show SCD at the National earlier this month the cover said "39th National Convention Issue." But on the table of contents it was listed as the 38th National. Am I picky? Maybe. Proofreading was my passion. More importantly, there is more often one or two decent articles surrounded by a lot of puff pieces. Thank you.[/QUOTE]
