AP Stylebook: No More Illegal Immigrants

02 Apr 2013 17:04 #1 by FredHayek
Per ABC News and Drudge: Stylebooks are used by media companies so that everyone in the organization uses the same terms. Today the term "illegal alien" is no longer to be used except in very rare cases. People can't be illegal only the crimes they commit are illegal. Modern semantics right?

'Illegal alien' is redundant. Can one be a 'legal' alien?

Yes. Legal aliens have green cards and visas.
