    You can reasonably say things like, "The White House declined to respond to questions in a professional, factual manner per their usual deceptive and anti-American behavior."

    That would be much more informative for your audiences, much more honest, and far better #Journalism

      @michael_martinez

      There are times when direct quotes are called for.

      "Expletive laden" simply does not convey what "Open the fuckin' straight, you crazy bastards... Praise be to Allah..." does.

        @JKrotkov I want to argue with you - I do. But you have a point.
