I change the channel every time I hear that one--been busy with the remote lately.
When did the newscasters lose the ability to speak the language correctly? When? My kids will tell you I'm forever correcting talking-head "different than" and "try and" constructions, not that it does any good.
I miss Walter Cronkite.
