If I may ask: Did you find such errors in the linked article? Is this what prompted your question?
"The Hindu" (linked in the post) is one newspaper which takes these things seriously. They even have an "ombudsman" of sorts (whom they call the "Reader's Editor") and they encourage readers to write in to this person pointing out all sorts of mistakes, including grammatical [1].
Constraints of the printed page would also explain some of the "different" language which one finds in newspapers.
