Hey, pour, pore, poar, pure, whatever, right? English is a living language! Words mean whatever we want them to. Who needs spelling, anyway? Damn prescriptivists!
‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.’
‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’
‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master – that’s all.’

This happens every day in the Australian print media. I can’t understand why (a) Journalism courses require stratospheric VCE (=A level) results, and (b) the standard is getting worse every year, both in the mechanics of writing and the level of analysis (many more journalist pieces which are essentially top and tailed press releases). The two don’t seem to gel together.
