Poor grammar is disappointing and decidedly distracting in formal audio reviews.

I find the majority of formal audio reviews across numerous publications to be easy reads.  However, I can barely put together a coherent thought when reading anything by Jason Kennedy, editor of the-ear.net.  It is as if he does not understand the limitation of use of a comma.  Do the English really have that much of a different implementation of the english language versus Americans?  Does anybody else struggle to read certain editors' work?

dekay,
I don't know what GMAFB is an acronym for, but I'm betting that it's not a compliment.
I guess that mentioning his religious affiliation on this occasion wasn't the best idea, but no harm done. That's why this is the USA.

Nonoise!  A fit description of the mess we find our greater gaggle groping with! +42!

Democracy is So Passe'....

We really need a loose-minded mafia-stereotype to devolve us into the futility of the future, leading some truth deceiver sycophants to goosestep Proper...🤪

poor grammar and spelling > stuffy "writerly" posts that reek of effort. not only in hifi either. saw someone mentioned christopher hitchens - great example of a guy who could float until he got out of his depth. unfortunately for him (and us) that was on the subject of religion. anyway, i personally think darko's better in print, (but still love his channel - that room!) and art dudley was decent as well. ymmv
