WHAT IS YOUR OBSESSION WITH THIS?
I once worked for a newspaper and at times I was asked to write/type copy. Casual staff came in at wkends and typed and sometimes even the sales teams typed for print. Many people in editoral, production, sales contribute to the typed word in press and some can't spell. When I did this job is was on ancient macs with only the program required, no spell check, no internet.
I hope this answers your question, no conspiricy...
