Grammar/copy editing question: is this @nytimes sports headline correct? It reads wrong to me. Seems like, in this case, the first word should be “Who”, not “Whom”. I know the most common error with these words is to fail to use “whom”. But this seems to me to be the opposite. https://t.co/GDZEiuDMNE — PolitiTweet.org

@Topps72 @nytimes I agree. Whenever I was writing something that seemed like it might be confusing, I’d read it out loud and decide based on how it “sounded”, even silently. If it didn’t pass that test, I’d change it. — PolitiTweet.org
