Forbidden Words

The following cannot be used henceforth until further notice:

campaign trail
drill down
balanced approach
the American people  (especially forbidden to politicians)
fiscal cliff
mandate
we'll see how it all turns out
Season's Greetings
emotional (especially by TV journalists when something obviously emotional comes on)
exclusive  (especially regarding a news report)
Objectify (as in objectify women). Just substitute the definition and leave out this abstraction
