So now according to the Society of Professional Journalists, the word "illegal" is a ThoughtCrime. And they wonder why they have a credibility problem.

You “journalists” mustn’t use labels (even if they are accurate).
To: La Lydia
I guess they never heard of Freedom of Speech. All newspapers, ALL TV and ALL of Hollywood support Husseins facism icnluding Prince Al Waleed’s Fox News. Fox is only slightly better. Keep watching TV and hollwyood folks and you get more leftist repression, more gayness in the military and more thought crime.

Reporters told: Don’t say ‘illegal immigrant’,
Say “illegal alien”
To: La Lydia
Why only go halfway? If we are going to create upbeat but fictional labels let’s find even more positive terms. We can call them all “benevolent brain surgeons” or “successful philanthropists” or “fun-loving rocket scientists.” Might as well be creative.

Other facts/terms the “Diversity Committee” told reporters to adhere:
1) The REAL Black on White crime stats
2) The true homosexual lifestyle
3) Female genital mutilation by Islam in the USA
4) Man-made climate change is false and they know it.
5) Anything goes when attacking Sarah Palin
6) Criticism of the progressive agenda will not be tolerated.
7) The Tea Party is a racist organization
8) Gun owners are to be treated as barabarians
9) Christianity is a cult
10) Capitalism is exploitative

“Crimalien” just flows so nicely.
...sounds like a reptile, though.

Leo Laurence needs to read a copy of the US Constitutional. And what's the organization of professional journalists? What a FN joke. If journalists did their job in the first place, there wouldn't be so much alternative media. The MSM has done a horrific job of informing and educating the public over the past 50 years.

I know these people break the law and come immigrant into our country, we should call them what they are: ILLEGALS. But we have to tiptoe around the minorities because they might get their feelings hurt if we stand up for our country.

He said the organization's "Diversity Committee" ..."decided to engage in a yearlong educational campaign designed to inform and sensitize journalists...." No need to get in the ear of the "sensitive" types. They already eschew the use of all truthful language.
