The memorial to in the otherwise worthy is shockingly bad. It is written by a *senior editor*, which makes me want to call the offices down there and make sure everyone is OK.

The misuse of punctuation, failure to grasp quotation marks, inaccuracies, the incoherent ideas--it's all just a disgrace to Wayne's memory. It looks like Donald Trump handled the capital letters. It's like a middle school essay.

I'll give examples in the comments.

What's going on with this obit for late master in ? It's like a bunch of hipster clichés tossed in a blender with very little historical context. ChatGPT could have written this. Shorter and the jazz community deserved better. jazztimes.com/features/tribute

The “Farewell” column in this month’s JazzTimes is just brutal. Pharoah Sanders, Butch Thompson, Ramsey Lewis, Creed Taylor, Joey DeFrancesco, jaimie branch, Anton Fier, Sue Mingus, Ronnie Cuber, and others.
