"activists bully big companies" What's up with this plainly ridiculous usage of the term "bully"? It's almost self-parody. It's something I've noticed in British newspapers sometimes where MPs will whine about being "bullied" by citizens who post rude comments online. It's really obviously not the right term for whatever point you want to express! Taking points off your English paper for incorrect word usage.
