We’ve already praised the work John Oliver is doing to address the pressing issues of the modern age (here and here), but now he is taking on even more important tasks: addressing the correct way to pronounce “gif” and making a valiant effort to stop improper use of the word, “literally”.
With his new co-anchor, Cookie Monster, Oliver is part of an effort by Sesame Street to encourage families to explore the wonderful world of words. Great stuff, and a dream come true for the wordsmiths out there.
