  1. This is one of your headlines…

    Willing to loose $1M/yr for 60 yrs!

    This is very common now. When did “lose” become “loose?”

    Of course, a $1 million a year loss for a major daily would today be cause for celebration.

    I believe that Hearst’s New York Journal-American lasted a little more than 60 years beyond the period depicted.
