I must also note that simply because someone cannot formulate their feelings in a more mature and sophisticated manner, it is not indicative that they do not have a point. In the new age of media, just read the many opinion writers who use average to less-than-average language on a daily basis. I will not name specific editors, but just look at all the LANG opinions and columnists and we can see how others write just as poorly as they do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514745.post-76357847549251457512010-02-22T09:58:02.183-08:002010-02-22T09:58:02.183-08:00Name calling is a short cut to thinking.
