Allegedly Gone Bad!
I was thinking about te word allegedly and the use that Dr. Jerz stated in class and how it is extremley important for you to put it in article to make it obviously that the victim, or criminal has not been charged yet.
I found a article that states, " Alllegedly is a word that reporters and news readers need to stop using."
The term allgedelly is assumed to be used so that journalist/reporters do not get sued. This article is stating the benefits of using other words besides allegedly.
An to stop over exposing the word "Allegedly"!
