I agree proofreading is dead, but I didn’t see much in that story that a proofreader would flag. I see a lot of misspelling, double words, missing words, and confusing punctuation in news stories which is sloppy and inexcusable. On-screen text has made the concept of typography obsolete, and I think it has affected printed text. Nobody is bothered by rivers, widows, or orphans anymore.
