Abusing language 21/10/2012
Looks like The Australian is leaving itself open to charges – according to a new definition – of misogyny:
Nicola Roxon faces Peter Slipper revolt
Milanda RoutNicola Roxon crosses the line
Dennis ShanahanRoxon amongst poorest performers
Peter Van Onselen
It’s not the true definition which describes a misogynist as a woman hater; and it’s not the politicised Macquarie definition of ”sexist”. No, it’s the version employed when a Labor woman emulates her male colleagues and displays astonishing incompetence and blatant politicisation of judicial processes and gets called on it.
Talk about cheapening the language.
