The #NYT continues on their proud tradition of not acknowledging even an 8-bit alphabet.
They fuck up two names (one of them the president’s), then publish a correction, only to purposely misspell them again, but differently.
Niinistö, not Niinisto. Särkkä, not Sarkka. Those letters are distinct phonemes, and they change the meaning of the word. NYT just keeps showing their utter disregard for both accuracy and decency.
US-ASCII yesterday, US-ASCII today, US-ASCII forever!
