[Corpora-List] Studies of spelling error frequency in journalistic text

[Paul McNamee]

I am looking for references to studies reporting spelling error rates
in modern journalistic text. Say for newspapers with large
circulations.  Ideally I'm looking for a number, such as "1 in 1000
words", but breakdowns by type of error (e.g., for proper/common
nouns, etc...) would be a bonus.

I'm less interested, but would still be curious to know of any studies
that have either: (1) compared spelling error frequency across textual
styles (including news); or, (2) compared rates across languages with
differing morphological complexity.

Thanks!

- Paul
