From NottheNation: The Nation Hails History-Making Discovery of Incredible Program Called "Spell Check"
...Group editor Pana Janviroj was fast to claim the news as a trailblazing moment in the history of journalism in the country. “The discovery of this program known as ‘spell check’ is the greatest breakthrough for English-language Thai media in the country since we discovered the thesaurus function in 2002,” he announced.
...The editor-in-chief of the new content-free paper ‘Daily Xpress,’ Tulsathit Taptim, said that the discovery of spell check would not impact the publication’s name.
“The new generation of sophisticated readers is much too clever to care about spelling words correctly. For this segment it is important to have trendy misspellings that highlight hip letters, like the letter X in Xpress. Spell check, while obviously an exciting new technology, is more suited to the older generation of ‘Nation’ readers.”
