If I were a pessimist, I would insist that these images from the Times online edition (yesterday and today, respectively) indicate that our society really is beyond redemption.

However, I am an optimist, and I am choosing to believe that the two different misspellings of à la, along with the lack of italics, are the result of nothing more than gremlins in somebody’s computer somewhere, and that the print edition gets it right.

Note that I have no intention of checking the print edition to find out whether my belief is correct or not. I’m an optimist, not an idiot.
