It’s long been my belief that writing has fallen off a cliff: Social media is littered with misspellings and bad grammar.  Worse, the people who should be getting it right … media and journalists, are representing their brands with a shocking amount of typos, run-on sentences and incorrect grammar.    Brian Moore is here to help! He’s an editor (ex-RedEye, Tribune Publishing) copywriter, marketer, writer and social media pro who also answers to “Grumpy Grammar Guru.”  Brian came prepared with some general tips we can all follow to improve our writing. If you spend any time on social media, this episode can help you!   In addition to those tips, we discuss:   *The ‘memeification’ of America *Using profanity in writing *Vinyls vs. Records *”I before E, except after C”: BULLSHIT. *Unnecessary apostrophes in plural words *Use profanity with purpose… you fucker. *STOP SAYING “VERY” AND “REALLY” Car Con Carne is presented by Alex Ross Art.
