I am not on TV, I am not in the communications business and I do not
make a living as such. I am not perfect with my speech but generally I do pretty well, but I expect better from those making a living through communication. Your response reminded me of a story:
A non uva fan went to Charlottesville to attend the football game. He could not find the stadium, so he asked a uva fan "Can you tell me where the stadium is at?" The obnoxious uva fan quickly sized up the gentleman as not being a uva fan, and recognizing him as such thought it was his place to correct the non uva fan saying "You are obviously not a uva fan and you have poor grammar skills, don't you know you never end a sentence with a preposition?" The gentleman paused for a moment before responding "Sorry about that, can you tell me where the stadium is at.......asshole".
