How about this AP headline:
“Romney Fires Landscapers Over Illegals –– Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Tuesday fired a landscaping company for using illegal immigrants to work on his lawn a week after a tussle with rival Rudy Giuliani over this issue.”
You know what struck me about this?
Not that he fired an illegal, was that they used the word “illegal“ in the headline.
This is like a Reuters story:
“Romney Fires Landscapers for Illegals.”
If this had been a Democrat, and if the story had even been written, the headline would have been: “Democrat Presidential Candidate Fires Undocumented Workers.” They would never use the word “illegals.”
When is the last time you saw the Media use “illegal“? They don’t do it, except now when they can tie it to a Republican: Mitt Romney.
