Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

Illiteracy at CNN

On CNN this morning, two subtitles included the phrases "Jobs death" and "Job's global influence."  The man's name is Steve Jobs. To form the possessive you must add an apostrophe and put it in the right place: "Jobs' death."

Can we blame this one on liberals too?  Is there perhaps something to the 'definition' of a liberal as a person who has never met a standard he didn't want to erode?
