The Pursuit of Impeccable English

There is a section of knowledge seekers who go after it in places the same doesn't exist. So much so that the person or presenter they mimic and follow is too less equipped to help them reach the goal. This can be disastrous to their commitment of time invested or model followed. I came across such a situation, wherein people were glued to the television featuring news. The anchor of this tv channel was thought by them as a medium who taught pronunciation and nuances of the English language by the news he presented. This is simply weird as these people are known to blurt out many wrongly pronounced words. The teleprompter wields a few tricks too. It can be argued that the best way to learn pronunciation or spelling or develop a vocabulary is through reading intellectually-acclaimed books. More so, using dictionary and looking up for words helps too. These ways are more infallible than the lone Presenter of a Show.
