Attorneys and their spokespeople don't need good grammar, do they?

I was watching the news when an ad for Johnson Law firm aired. I believe that it was there Mesothelioma ad. The ad closed with the line "helping you and those you are there for." Really?  Yet, another case of not editing the script and ending with a preposition.

I might never run out of bad grammar in advertising.

Bad Grammar and the sequester

"Few signs of sequester consequences the White House warned about" was the story-line on Fox New - America's Newsroom at 9:15 AM on April 1, 2013. It wasn't an April foo'ls Day joke, it was sloppy grammar displayed right on the screen and spoken by the newscaster. I guess that even conservative news-people get a little bit liberal with the spoken word.

Clear Choice in Grammar

A woman who was embarrassed by having yellowed teeth decided to receive a dental treatment through Clear Choice Dental Implants. She wanted her son to be proud of her not 'embarrassed of her.' I understand the sentiment. He may be embarrassed by her poor use of grammar. He may be ashamed of her use of poor grammar. He wasn't embarrassed of her, he was embarrassed by her poor teeth.

Where else can we find bad grammar?

It is that time of year. Easter. The arrival of the season means new advertising. The television ad I saw that hatched some bad grammar was a Reese's Easter Egg ad with some new eggs for this Easter. They ended the commercial with "Which eggs are you hunting for?" It's chocolate. It is the Easter Season. I feel a little forgiving. I am not forgiving enough to let it completely slide.
