FOX: The Twitter account for the Associated Press apologized for a recent tweet suggesting that “the French” was a “dehumanizing” term, acknowledging that it “caused unintended offense.”
The AP official account tweeted Friday morning, “The use of ‘the French’ in this tweet by @AP was inappropriate and has caused unintended offense. An updated tweet is upcoming.”
The original tweet that put the AP in hot water with social media users came from the @APStylebook account on Thursday. It suggested doing away with “dehumanizing ‘the’ labels,” including “the poor” and, inexplicably, “the French.”
It read, “We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing ‘the’ labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated. Instead, use wording such as people with mental illnesses. And use these descriptions only when clearly relevant.” more
But it’s OK to call conservatives “deplorables”?
