I'm sorry, but this is SO annoying

WHEN did using proper English go out of style . . . especially for journalists???  Just look at this headline,

https://www.westernjournal.com/high-schooler-gets-denied-diploma-boldly-proclaiming-gospel-commencement-speech/

GETS?????  He GETS denied?????  OMGOD.

The proper way to say that, ESPECIALLY FOR A JOURNALIST, is "High Schooler IS denied diploma . . ." 

So many people who should know better (including President Trump) abuse the English language.
