Excellent analysis. Completely agree. I have never seen a piece complaining about the usage in "insurgent" vs. "rebel" when the news speaks of foreign affairs, but that is a perfect example of newspeak. Instead, we speak of newspeak because the new president doesn't like "politically correct" speech. What?
