Anyway Fox is most particularly guilty of this but I've seen it in some other news outlets. Whenever a reporter wants to get a certain POV across or wants to confront someone without being too confrontational himself he'll start out a question like this
"Some people say that the Democratic party is imploding under Dean's leadership."
Just ONCE I'd like someone to respond "What people, Sean?" "Who is saying that?"
Journalism is about using sources to verify information. "Sources in the White House say John Dean is an ass." as opposed to "Some People say John Dean is an ass."
Once the media starts getting away with this nonsense - and I do believe at this point its already happened - they can just plug their own views in there and no one will challenege them "Some people say George Bush should be president for life." "Some people say Blacks need to go back to Africa." Seriously this trend is so disturbing yet no one in any media outlet addresses this. No one seems to give a shit that journalists are no longer reporting news, they are conveying opinions.
Don't take this the wrong way...
Its the motherfucking DEMOCRAT PARTY!!!!
Democratic is a completely different word.
Editor's Note: Split from here. Some people say if it hadn't been this thread, he would have talked himself off the board in this one.

Take your best shot.
Is that a Ban Threat?
Mike and the Admins don't bluff. Never have, never will. Enjoy your ten-teraton turbolaser broadside...
If he wants to ban me for pointing out his lack of skill in proper use of the English language then he can go for it. You left meaning dicktards are already boring enough to make me want to move on.
So have your jollies slapping each other on the back. BTW 12,000 plus posts.
Another day, another fucking retard who doesn't read the 'Don't dare the admin to ban you. They love a good dare' section of the FAQ. Not like he'll be missed.

First, you idiot, the Democratic Party is what we call OURSELVES. And yes, I am a Democrat, like my father before me.
Now, if you want to quibble semantics, that's one thing. If you want to draw a huge target on your chest (which you are doing Quite Nicely), then you will be Banned without a fair-thee-well.
So either apologise, or get out.
Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

Some people say MrAnderson has been banned for being a usless little cunt. I don't know if he's even worthy of a shitlist entry but if anyone is interested feel free. DO NOT FUCKING DARE US TO BAN YOU.
Sometimes I see them, the banned, they wait for me across the River Styx and they say "We're such dumbasses."
There are no pacts between lions and men.
I'll tell you a secret, something they don't teach you in your temples. The gods envy us. They envy us because we are mortal, because every moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed. You will never be lovlier than you are now and we will never be here again.

Maybe you should get a fucking life.
I think you meant to say "left leaning dicktards", not "left meaning dicktards", but of course that's just me wrangling over semantics.

The official name of the Democratic Party is the Democratic National Committee. Wherever you find yourself, the next time you decide to play nitpick semantics whore, at least try to be right. You'll look like less of a dumb twat that way.
