This is pissing me the fuck off.

So let me make this utterly clear - henceforth any news article title that is erroneously using "deport" must be re-titled to use "exile" at the very least.

I'll do my part by editing the titles for any newsbot postings since that's all automated.

Language is important, deport has a very specific meaning. You cannot deport a citizen to a different country. The word the media seems to have difficulty using is "Exile" and "Salvadoran Death Camp".

So, I, as server admin will do it for them - because I'm not a fucking spineless coward.
