Typos of the New York Times

@nyttypos

I am an appellate lawyer and persnickety dude. As a hobby, I correct typos in the Times, which no longer employs copy editors and consequently has tons of typos

The Athletic Jim Trotter As I have tried to teach you in the past, “predominately” is not a word, Jim Trotter. It’s just a common misspelling of predominantly. And what is with this paragraph spacing?

The New York Times The second word of your article is a grammatical error; “The” should be “the” in “When The Washington Post staff” because “the” modifies “staff,” not “Post.” See your style guide, and please stop making this mistake, as you often do, Katie Robertson, Ben Mullin.

The New York Times Jesus Jiménez The Times “adjusts” capitalization and punctuation in quotes to follow its style, and under its style it doesn’t hyphenate “Mexican-American” (the theory is that hyphenation implies only part-American status) or capitalize “veterans.” Jesus Jiménez

The New York Times “an” is a typo in “Canales said an in a 2015 interview”; “the Los Angeles Times” is a style guide violation for “The Los Angeles Times”; more exciting style guide violations to follow. Jesus Jiménez

The Athletic Lauren Merola Likewise, “people using her name was not something I can control” (internal quotation marks omitted) is a grammatical error for “people’s using her name.” The thing she can’t control is the use of her name, not the people who are using it (which is what “people using” means).

The Athletic “name being” is an ungrammatically fused participle that should read “name’s being.” What you wrote means Caitlin Clark denounced her own name (which is being used to push racism and misogyny), not that she denounced the use of her name to push racism and misogyny. Lauren Merola

The Athletic David Aldridge “There’s nothing illegal in the PBM’s practices” is an error for “the PBMs’ practices,” the practices of the PBMs, not of the PBM. “Pharmacy Benefit Managers” should be lowercase throughout. David Aldridge
