[FC - anoynized for your protection...]

I've heard from a few sources that CNN's producers have told their on-air
folks not to use the word "terrorists" or "terrorist actions" since nobody's
been convicted of such a crime in the courts yet.

This is probably their answer to a similar policy Reuters made a week or so
ago.....in this case, Reuters was trying to be politically correct in their
reporting.

I've not seen stuff firsthand on the CNN one, but figured it would be of
interest to some list subscribers.
