Would you trust anything written by a Yahoo! News journalist who can’t do simple arithmetic?
I don’t know how the writer came up with the allegation that 956 (which is about 1,000) out of 100,000 is “roughly one out of every 1,000). To my simple mind, it seems more like one out of every 100.

As long as users continue to use Yahoo and read its content, there’s no motivation for the company to improve it. I think readers are partly to blame for the drop in the quality of writing. They accept it or don’t know the difference between good and bad reporting.
