Subject: A Question of English

Hi Etniers:

I regularly receive literature from an interesting English language outfit.
Today they quoted the following problem. However, I was
unable to see the implied error. Can anyone else see it?

The morning news show on WBAL-TV in Baltimore has a
"Water Cooler Question of the Day". Michael Turniansky tells
me a recent question was
"Should mandatory drug testing for steroids be required for high school 
athletes?"

His immediate response was that mandatory drug testing
should certainly be required. Of drug testing that isn't mandatory,
he says that he hasn't yet formed an opinion. He suggests that
mandatory English courses should be required for television news staffers.
