ProPublica is accused of the devastating journalistic crime of using words and phrases in their Clarence Thomas report by the WSJ editorial board.

We stand accused of adjectival abuse. Assume the WSJ will be reporting us to the Society of Professional Journalists.
I’d take alt suggestions.
“Short & long-order cook who works just for him”?
“Extremely large boat”?
“Place where no gurls lowd”?
My response to the @WSJ editors: As a federal employee i couldn’t accept any gift worth more than $20 and no more than $50 per year from the same source. And we were to refuse any gift if there were even an appearance of inappropriateness.
I suppose the @WSJ would be offended if someone referred to a $3,500 bottle of Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Echezeaux Grand Cru as “an expensive bottle of wine” rather than just “a bottle of wine.”
