Message To CBS 4's Joe Shortsleeve

Joe, you are an excellent reported. Like and admire your work but tonight you did a piece on the pros and cons of buying a home or renting that had an all to common verbal error.

You suggest that a person consult with a "Real - a - tor". There is NO Such Animal. The word is Real-tor [realtor]. Hearing someone mispronounce that word is like scratching your fingers on a blackboard.

Bigger question is why didn't some CBS 4 editor catch that mistake since your piece was on tape. Ooops !
 
Joe is an excellent reported? You used the word "reported" as a noun. Isn't that word a verb? I thought he was a reporter...not a reported. Looks like you didn't catch your own mistake there buddy. You're not perfect either.
 
That was a typo error not a verbal error and fortunately there was someone out there like you to correct it.

The Casablance has spoken...
 
Actually, it should be Casablanca not Casablance but the system doesn't seem to allow you to correct the spelling of your user name.

'Round up the usual suspects...'

why don't you e-mail him directly instead of posting your rants here where i am sure he doesn't stop by?
 
Who said that wasn't done but this is a New England TELEVISION Board and therefore appropriate.
