future of "On Language"

[Nathan Bierma]

Dear ADS, 
 
My previously weekly "On Language" column (www.nbierma.com/language) has been appearing erratically in the Chicago Tribune over the last few weeks. Reduced space in the Tempo section has forced the editors to eliminate some content, including a few regular features. The Tribune is now deciding whether to continue to run "On Language" at all.
 
If you think my column is worth having around as one soldier in the fight against linguistic misinformation and prescriptivist scolding in the public forum, and would like to send a message of support to the Tribune editors, please e-mail ctc-tempo at tribune.com, tbannon at tribune.com, and jcwarren at tribune.com.
 
Thank you,
 
Nathan Bierma
