Heh, now the press can't even say "the N word"? This is getting ridiculous.

What if the individual reporting is black... then can they say/write it?

I'm not even talking about the actual word, I'm talking about the euphemism "the N word". This article goes through ridiculous bush beating around to avoid even saying that.

why don't people ever put a period after the last letter of any acronym? they always look so lonely there without a period to help shield them :(
