Wall Street Journal Latest Politically Correct Entity To Re-Write History: "Proposed Mosque Not At Ground Zero"

The Wall Street Journal is the latest news organization to announce it'll avoid using the oft-repeated phrase "Ground Zero Mosque" when describing Park51, a proposed Islamic community center and mosque in Lower Manhattan.

The Journal's Paul Martin, who writes the paper's Style & Substance blog, described the guidelines on Monday.

"Although the phrase 'Ground Zero mosque' has become ubiquitous in the media, we should avoid the imprecise term whenever possible outside of quoted material," Martin wrote. (The decision follows a discussion between Martin and deputy managing editor Matt Murray).

Difficult to understand how something calling itself The Wall Street Journal would not know that of course the Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse was part and parcel to Ground Zero. It was damaged during the attack, and click here for a closer look.

Yet another commie rag I won't be reading again any time soon.
