oh I've read a few op eds even about this topic or the readers will write in themselves and battle it out! the "could care less" side will say that this expression better expresses their indifference to the issue at hand, as in, they can't even bother to decide how much they care about it. the "couldn't care less" side says that this expression more literally and precisely expresses their indifference to the issue at hand. then the editors start getting bomb threats and the topic is sidelined for a few years. then it pops up again, and the bloody battles resume! awesome.
