Another win from the Blogger Teams' Blogs of Note: The Blog of Unnecessary Quotation Marks. Indeed there is precious little more annoying, particularly in news copy. What does it mean to say someone is a "terrorist" for example? I suppose it's a rather limp way of disowning a claim made by others but which you aren't quite sure you should be repeating, which seems to me a bit like selling a drink as "chocolate" flavoured when all it contains are brown coloured E-numbers.
