MSNBC Panel Accuses AP Report Of Racism For Dropping Gs From Transcription Of Obama’s Speech To The Congressional Black Caucus…
Normally, I lean toward the clean-it-up school of quote transcribing — for everyone. But in this case, the President appeared to be making such a point of dropping Gs, and doing so in a rhythmic fashion, that for me to insert them would run clearly counter to his meaning. I believe I was respecting his intent in this. Certainly disrespect was the last thing I intended.
