An unfair profile of McCain?

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Today’s Page One profile of John McCain was unfair to the candidate, one caller complained this morning. He said there wasn’t a kind word in the piece. The profile certainly had tone, but did it cross the lines of fair…

Why we use the abbreviations we use (or not)

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I got an e-mail recently from a reader who noted that one of the universities in St. Louis is officially called “Saint Louis University” — yet the Post-Dispatch refers to it as “St. Louis University.” Why, she wanted to know.

West Virginia, not Virginia
