It’s been nearly six months since I’ve done an edition of amNewYork Watch, my once-weekly feature pointing out glaring errors in the free daily newspaper published by the bankrupt Tribune Company. I pretty much stopped reading amNewYork around that time, switching to the lighter Metro, simply because they offer two Sudoku to amNY’s one.

This morning, a hawker in Union Square was standing over a pile of copies of Metro, so I took one from him. Fortunately for you, dear reader, it turned out to be today’s amNewYork he was handing out. And at the risk of beating a dead horse and kicking a newspaper when it’s down, they’re still just as bad as ever.

Apparently, Tribune is so strapped for cash, they even cut back on spell check.
