      There is some good advice in this video about word usage. It could help you not embarrass yourself.

    This is a video on common mistakes people make in pronunciation, spelling and word usage. I thought it was appropriate considering the Poynter assessment we have due this week.

    Ok, this seems obvious. Journalists are inherently bad at math, but we all should be able to calculate a person's age. And to be clear, I am capable of doing that math. But let's say you're looking at court or police documents and it only lists a person's date of birth. Did this person just have a birthday? Or is it still months away? I like to use this age calculator to double check that I have the age right. This is something that's incredibly easy to get wrong. It's also an incredibly stupid mistake. You're probably the only one that is going to double check this person's age. Get it right.
