Borked Unicode: Tips for journalists on Unicode and writing clean copy

Mike Rundle, using Twitter for its true purpose, hyperefficient cyberbullying: “Kind words from Joe Clark? Did I read that right?”

The only thing I ever wrote about Rundle on this site was, in fact, rather kind:

Mike Rundle, it turns out, is built like a brick shithouse and responded to my query “What’s it like being stocky?” factually and without irony. (“I prefer ‘thick.’ ” Who wouldn’t?)

His friend called me a racist and I called his friend a liar, which he was. Rundle now maintains the miconception that I “had negative words for [him].” Well, I didn’t before.
