Cluestick time

Canadian Press are clueless idiots who will repeat a stupid, incompetence-revealing factual error for three decades, no matter how many times they are told they are wrong.

Exhibit A:
Three goose hunters reported missing from Labrador village found safe

NATUASHISH, N.L. (CP) - A group of hunters who were reported missing from their Labrador village have been found safe.

The three left Natuashish, an Inuit community, at around 6 p.m. on Saturday for a three-hour goose hunting trip on a five-metre aluminum boat.

ah, yes, those idjits in the media. I wonder, is it at all helpful to describe the community in any terms ? After all, it is a Canadian community, a Labrador community, and an Innu community. But why use any adjective at all, let alone the wrong one. Let's have plain speaking in the media. Natuashish is a community. These people are people. Thankfully, they are none the worse for having been delayed by bad weather.
