Being PC in today’s world

Towntalk, it's really no use. Even Mr Obama stated that the suspect allegedly tried to ignite an explosive device.

[Towntalk]

A man was on an airplane ... that is an undisputed fact.

An explosive device was detonated ... that is a fact.

The man was subdued by a passenger sitting behind him ... that is a fact.

The man was injured in his failed attempt to blow up the airplane ... that is a fact.

The man's father had earlier warned officials about his son ... that is a fact.

Part of explosive device was sewn into man's underwear ... that is a fact.

The man was barred from entering the UK ... that is a fact.

So why with all these facts at hand would the news media say:

"Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab is being held for allegedly trying to blow up a flight carrying 300 passengers on Christmas Day."

I for one am fed up with the press bending over backwards to be so POLITICAL CORRECT in the wake of overwhelming facts.

If a member of the news media had been on that plane and it had exploded would they be PC?
