Even most news outlets can’t even get their micro-typography right in the age of Unicode.
It is ‟Foo”, not "Foo". In languages where quotes are on the baseline, e.g. German, this is even more of an eyesaw. "Spiegel" instead of „Spiegel“ (to make matters worse, the German closing quote is wrong in Verdana, somehow).
And let’s not start about - vs. – vs. — or the difference between ... and … (and that you have to put a space before an ellipsis). :)
