University research assistant fined $6,000 for molesting colleague in workplaceThe use of the preposition 'in' in the headline is incorrect. The correct preposition is 'at' & it should be followed by the use of either the article 'the' or the possessive pronoun 'their' to make the sentence grammatically accurate & the information clear & precise.

Grammatical errors in their reporting should have been flagged & rectified before anything is published for public consumption to avoid being criticised.
