Editor,
I have to really wonder about the Daily Lobo sometimes … actually, too many times. Typos and some punctuation errors I can understand, poor grammar I can sort of understand, but the copy editor that came up with the 4/18/12 headline for “Projects widening Lead and Coal end” takes the cake.
Whoever wrote that headline obviously doesn’t take the time to actually read and understand the article beforehand. This is inexcusable, especially on the front page. At least try for a semblance of professionalism … the two streets in question actually lost a lane in each direction … how could this, by any interpretation, be considered widening?
The project hasn’t ended yet — which the headline clearly implies.

Editor’s Note: The headline refers to the total width of Lead and Coal, both of which received wider bike lanes. The Daily Lobo apologizes for the confusion.
