Nicole at PostBourgie Drops The I-Word

If there's ever been a time that I've felt better about speaking with folks privately before needlessly putting them on blast, this is it.  I just got off the phone with Nicole at PostBourgie who was originally cited by both Adam Serwer at The American Prospect and Ezra Klein at the Washington Post in their defenses of using the word "illegal." I was told by Nicole that she no longer uses the word illegal in her writing.  This right after Serwer confirmed with me over the phone that he no longer uses the i-word.  Two major victories in a row!  I'll update this post with a statement from her if she has time to write something today.
