Great job again, John.
Media Filter? In a "letter to the editor" of our local "newspaper," the writer addresses another form of pc media filtering. Not on topic with your essay, but goes to the heart of the media not tellin' it like it is...
If 'illegal' means 'undocumented'
Published: October 22, 2003, 05:35:14 AM PDT
As I watched the news, I became quite concerned about some terminology. They dared to use the word "illegal" when referring to minors drinking. Shame on them! Don't they know that these minors are just "undocumented" consumers? So I want to help you with a few terms to use when dealing with what once were crimes:
Burglar: undocumented house guest.
Shoplifter: undocumented buyer.
Addict: undocumented medicine user.
Carjacker: undocumented repo-man.
Sounds ridiculous, huh? Well that's how most of us feel when you call an illegal alien "undocumented worker."
