The AP Stylebook published by the Associated Press gives aid and comfort to the enemy. Those who promote the AP Stylebook are co-conspirators to treason.

I am sure the AP Stylebook instructs writers to use “they,” “them,” and “their” where “he,” “him,” and “his” are correct.

It has gotten to the absurd point that CONSERVATIVE writers are saying things like: “If your SON comes home and tells you that THEY...”

I am seeing this atrocity on FR all the time, both in the articles and comments.

Forbid reporters the use of adjectives. That will make premise smuggling harder and the reporter’s injection of his own agenda difficult.
