If you’ve been watching news programs lately, maybe you noticed there is an increasing need for reporters to talk to “real people.” For example, to get opinions about a topic of the day, the reporter will tell us, “We asked real people what they think?” Who else would they talk to? Artificial people? Animals? Trees?
The last time I looked, we were all REAL PEOPLE. So let’s start referring to individuals more accurately. For example, in Iowa, refer to individuals as potential participants in the party caucuses.
For what it’s worth.
