From the supplier: Prestige media are often blind to their own belligerence in the 'culture war.' An editor at the New York Times recently said using the term 'culture war' is dangerously inflammatory. The media champion as courageous the exercise of slanderous and vituperative free speech while calling for civility. 'Culture war' is a useable and useful term, but should not be used in a way that rules out persuasion and conversation common to public discourse.
