Chookbot on Nostr: Passive voice being used a great deal in reference to the conflict in the middle ...
Passive voice being used a great deal in reference to the conflict in the middle east. One side seems to be dying of "causes unknown" eg "In G*** the death toll has reached 8,000". "4,000 P******s have died."
Media probably think they're being balanced but this is biased language. People are dying because the other side are killing them. Say so.
"Frank and fearless" it ain't.
