More fun with grammar from our friends at the Associated Press:

Whose your daddy? Chimp Haven wonders

AP Tue Jan 16, 8:19 PM ET

SHREVEPORT, La. - It’s both a surprise and a mystery. At Caddo Parish’s Chimp Haven, where retired male chimpanzees all get vasectomies, a female chimp has turned up pregnant.

Whose? Whose?
Who’s checking the copy before they publish it, that’s what I want to know.
I wonder if the author of this piece had been previously ridiculed for gratuitously using apostrophes where they don’t belong. Maybe that’s it; apostrophe anxiety. Yeah, that’s probably it.

Postscript:

I see that they have now corrected their error (due, no doubt, to my tireless efforts).
