What the hell is up with economist.com proofreading. A grammatical or spelling error in the article title is a red flag to me that screams "I'm a piece of garbage, don't read me".

Time to reestablish quality over quantity.

Haha, I saw the same thing. No way I would pay 20 euro to read that.

I used to play a game when I'd read TechCrunch for whatever misguided reason: I'd read until the first obvious spelling or grammatical error. I don't believe that I ever made it beyond the second paragraph. US journalism today is largely awful clickbaity crap, and the ad revenue encourages a race to the bottom for content quality. It'd be awesome if there were a way to align incentives for this to not be case. So far, nothing I've heard of seems to be working very well aside from running ads and trying to sell subscriptions, sometimes despite low-quality content.

The economist's dirty secret is that it's mostly written by a bunch of cheap graduates.

In case the error gets fixed, will you guys clarify what you are referring to?

Do you want it to say "crypto-currency game in town" instead of "game in crypto-currency town"?

Exactly, if they couldn't even get the title right, what else in the article is going to be incorrect?
