Sacramento Bee still calling Muslim suicide bomber “alleged.” Here’s the headline on the article: “Alleged would-be suicide bomber pleads guilty.” So the guy is guilty – he admitted it. At what point does the Sacramento Bee drop the “alleged” label for Muslim terrrorists? After they show up in the newsroom with 72 virgins?

When did George Costanza become a muslim?

Around here we call it the local fish wrap. I tried to use it for cat box liner, but the cat started going outside the box. Had to ditch that idea.
McClatchy happened.
It's an AP story that the Bee just picked up. The story was out of
Chicago. While I'm sure that the Bee sucks, the AP sucks more.
Yeah, it looks like that headline was originally written by the AP. Newspapers are not obligated to use the AP headline, so The Bee is not off the hook, but I wish I'd written this item about the AP where the PC idiocy came from in the first place.
I'm surprised they're admitting he's a Mohammedan.
An alleged Mohammedan.
The Sacramento Bee, an alleged newspaper....
In the alleged Capitol of an alleged state.
... of an alleged nation.
With an alleged president.
And that's the alleged truth
A few years ago, The Bee used to get things right most of the time. I wonder what happened?

The Bee is the flagship of the nationwide McClatchy Company.
Nothing more needs to be said on that subject.
Interestingly, when they refer to George Zimmerman, they call him "Trayvon Martin's shooter". http://www.sacbee.com/2012/07/27/4666763/zimmermans-parents-solicit-donations.html#storylink=misearch
I'm actually all for stating facts, so I don't have a problem with not weeniefy-ing the description of Zimmerman, but it's the hypocrisy that ticks me off.
Z shot Martin. Mosri plotted to suicide bomb. Either neither is alleged, or they both are.
Also from the "Bee"
"Alleged suicide bomber blows himself up."
"Alleged President takes the Oath of Office"
Hey dumbasses! There comes a time when you have to drop the "alleged" and admit to the fact.
True, but we still have an alleged President.
Jeez. For the Bee to speak to a moderate, they have to dial "011" first!
