The Daily News fails grammar.

In today's issue, this headline:

Textbook selection processes has many hurdles [emphasis mine]
I sure hope the people reading and reviewing our children's potential future school books are a bit more learned than whoever wrote that headline.

The verb is conjugated like this:

I have
you have
he, she, it has
we have
they have

Processes is clearly plural, so use have fer cryin' out loud.

I tried to leave a comment twice yesterday but failed. Then I tried to send a message to you but the Google form that comes up asked for your email address which I don't have. Would you please write to me at: Kathie5255@yahoo.com

btw did you find out any further about the weapons at school?
