Default Re: Mark Seif responds 1/11/07. Most amusing!

I just want to post in 911's defense here.

What other organization will you find that gives Costa Rican English-Second-Language students a chance to write journalism?

The New York Times wont, the CBC won't, even 2+2 doesn't.

Give the site credit for giving ESL children a break. So what if they story isn't even accurate. We need to help out these writers who are trying to kick-start their career.

Now why don't YOU try to write good journalism without any English, or grammar, or linguistics education...

And see how YOU like it!
