[ link to www.usatoday.com (secure)] "Effective immediately, we will discontinue use of the racially-insensitive term ‘Dixie Alley’ – and I call on others in the industry to do the same,” Byron Allen – CEO of Allen Media Group, parent company of The Weather Channel television network – said in a statement. “We must all work harder to become ONE America,” he added. This is crazy... Soon we will not be allowed to use the word "leg" anymore as it is insensitive to people in wheelchairs.... Wasn't there a thread somewhere about not using "mother" or "father" anymore?
