New York Times Headline:
At Least 85 Slain as Rebels Attack in South Russia.
A truthful headline would have read:
At Least 85 Slain as Muslim Terrorists Attack in South Russia.
In Timespeak, it takes reading deep deep into the 13th paragraph of the story before the "rebels", the "guerillas", the "insurgents" the "gunmen" are identified as, guess what? Muslims. I guess by then they'd exhausted their vocabulary of terms to conjure images of romantic rebellion, or else their efforts to shove the truth about the savages who murder innocents down the memory hole just ran out of steam.

Over 60 years ago the Times refused to mention that the overhwleming majority of victims of the Nazi extermination camps and Einsatgruppen massacres were Jews - choosing to refer to them as "political opponents" or nationality neutrals such as Poles, Frenchmen, Germans, Russins, etc. - the Times in its political correctness orthodoxy never mentions when the peptrators are members of the Religion of Peace.
