Mary and all, political correctness rears its ugly head again. Reuters is no longer using the word "terrorist" because as they say, "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter."

Stephen Jukes, the wire service's global head of news, explained his reasoning in an internal memo: "We all know that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter and that Reuters upholds the principle that we do not use the word terrorist. . . . To be frank, it adds little to call the attack on the World Trade Center a terrorist attack."
