Who do you love?

Yesterday I headed our excerpt of John O’Neill’s statement on his Nightline appearance “Who do you trust?” Many readers have written to note that “who” should have been “whom.” I know I’m dating myself, but I was alluding to the show that launched Johnny Carson on his way to the Tonight show: “Who Do You Trust?”
By the same token, Bo Diddley taught the incorrect but unforgettable version of the amatory question: “Who Do You Love?” Answer: “Arlene took me by the hand/And said oooh eeeh daddy I understand/I got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind/I lived long enough and I ain’t scared of dying.”
