This kind of stuff is going to hurt John Kerry, even if past stuff got a bit of a pass.

US flies 'illegal' Mexicans home
BBC NEWS
The quotation marks around "illegal" are there because these immigrants "crossed the border" without authorization, making their act against the "law."
I'd like to see the BBC expand this "careful" headline technique, creating headlines like "John Kerry 'says' he'll make a good president" or "the French 'claim' they're not all anti-semitic." Somehow I don't think that's going to happen.

4th of July Update
Not only are we on a quasi-holiday over the summer, but this is a holiday weekend. Plus, the Federer/Roddick Wimbledon final is going on at this very moment. And I'm in Seattle. So I wish we could say more blogging to come in the next few days, but I'd probably be lying if I did. Check back anyway, though - Tom's been much better at Ben and I at keeping the site active.
Have a great Independence Day. And remember, if it weren't for independence, Wimbleton would be our event.
Ok, maybe not a great example.
