on this day

which already lives in infamy, I decree that the BBC shall be Blitzed by the grammar Nazi for this gaffe regarding changes to the Oscar voting system for Best Picture:

"However, this is the first time it has been introduced for best picture voting since 1945." ....

USED, you twats! The word is "used" or "re-introduced." You can only "introduce" something once. After a thing's introduction, further instances of its use are no longer introductions!
