The Associated Press Monday released new guidelines for referencing the "alt-right," which ask that journalists use the term alongside its definition and in context of its association with racist beliefs.
ADVERTISEMENT The new guidelines read:
"'Alt-right' (quotation marks, hyphen and lower case) may be used in quotes or modified as in the 'self-described' or 'so-called alt-right' in stories discussing what the movement says about itself. Avoid using the term generically and without definition, however, because it is not well known and the term may exist primarily as a public-relations device to make its supporters' actual beliefs less clear and more acceptable to a broader audience."

Deplorable. You could have easily worked another "violent" in there.
The Alt right is anyone the left fears.
This is a good thing. Instead of throwing the term around, implying that is has *anything at all* with the conservative right, they are stating that the term must be clearly defined and only used in reference to neo-nazi-ish organizations.
Well, that should be true for any label.
just make certain to mention the names of fake news sites often
best free advertising ever
Alt-right is just a term to toss out to silence people on the right. It’s a propaganda tool.
They label someone Alt-right, and a lot of people read no further.
The media has destroyed it’s rep., and it seems intent on making sure it doesn’t get it back.
Everything the left uses is propaganda. They gotta keep the truth quite all the time. They cannot survive with the truth.....one main reason Trump won, he tells the truth, not afraid to do so either.
Took out media with his run, one of the best elections ever!
He took out a lot of people, and some we had thought were on our side.
You’re right. Best election ever!
The guy never quits!
Asspress, Rooters, and the Yahoos are the worst cockroaches of the bunch.
“A term just invented by the left wing MSM t try and discredit conservatives.”
It’s what they did to McCarthy, the John Birch Society, and anti-communists in the fifties. And they were damned successful.
Why, it's us deplorables, Mr. K or basically anyone the left, aka media, wants to demonize or belittle. No doubt they will come up with another catch phrase next month to use to further their evil and vile ambitions 'cause that's just who and what they are.
Agree, but the left are successful, because our side uses their words.
For instance, homosexuals were homosexuals, the left came in and said gay, and now our side uses the term.
They were called illegals, but now the left uses undocumented, and now our side uses the term.
To stop the left , then we have to stop using their words to fit their narrative, and no I won’t hold my breath to wait for it to happen.
