Humorous. You know what else is funny? Sree was complaining about the "offensive" use of the word tsunami while papers were churning out the following: http://www.wenalway.com/forum/index.php?topic=9.255 I saw that, too. Humorous.

This kind of thing is what you get from today's pseudojournalists. They try to play these little gotcha games. The PC police come up with some new "offensive" term, and then they try to catch people. It's really weak and really tiresome. You won't get much in the way of solutions from the Poynterbots. The group has one goal: to convince people to pay for its overpriced, worthless seminars. They know many newsrooms won't implement any of the changes, but they keep the charade going. By doing this, Poynter has been complicit in the "groupthink" attitude that has bled ideas and individuality from the newsrooms. Nelson Poynter has to be spinning in his grave right now.
