Oh goody, another very widely used site fails to care about validating their pages. Who are these people that they get to build these sites anyways?
I always have high hopes for sites like this, the guys who built the site really have a place to show off their coding skills. Instead, this site is riddled with ampersand issues, blank alt attributes, and the sin of them all...missing alt attributes. To me, this is one of the fundamental skills that us as web developers learn, or teach ourselves. But, I guess some of us fail to notice the small details.
Maybe those that work on sites with this much traffic, make so much money that they really don't care anymore....I think I will convince myself that this is the answer.
Goodnight.

hardly suprised to be honest. What do you expect? Web developers becoming editors?
I think it's unfair to blame the original site designer/developer of these errors, especially after the client's "content authors" now have their hands on it.
How many of these markup errors are outside the content/wysiwyg areas?
