But Byron-
News orgnizations aren't supposed to report a nickname more than an actual name. The reason is simple -- some peopl emay actually be trying to learn something when they turn on the news!!!! OK< not really with Fox, but they could at least pretend. Actually, it's journalistically OK if you use phrases lik e"the man known as Chemical Ali." But to use the nickname instead of the name throughout the course of a report is pure HACK JOURNALISM!
Before you get into me for being a liberal -- look back at my posts and see my condemnation of Peter Arnett.
I am, and always will be, a journalist. You may not like what I say, but I espouse honest journalism above politics. You have to give me that. I could easily debate your other conservative views. I agree with some, disagree with others. But at least admit that Fox news is the single most biased news organization on the air today.
