CNN WON’T USE THE “T” WORD: “The death toll suffered in bringing an end to the three-day Moscow theatre siege has risen to 90 captives and 50 hostage-takers.”

“Hostage-takers?” Jeez.

UPDATE: Reader James Davila writes:

You can give CNN feedback on their coverage at this link. I’ve just written them a note on their lack of use of the word “terrorist” in the article on the storming of

the Moscow theatre. It would be nice if a few thousand of your readers did the same.

Well, go for it if you’re so inclined.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Michele has noticed, too.
