All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXVII
RE: All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXVII
#53
And here's another, somewhat more subtle, attempt to throw a little bias into a page thanks to Agiletek, this time the one for former American president Jimmy Carter. I started college (just barely) during the Carter administration, and I remember he got more than a little mockery for his pronunciation of "nukular" -- but I do not remember Bush1 receiving "obsessive" mockery for the same pronunciation. Nor do I think complaining about the mistreatment of a later president really belongs on another president's page. He's also made a corresponding edit on the page for Bush1 where he once again complains about a double standard I don't recall ever existing.

The pair of them stink of standard right-wing "Mainstream Liberal Media" bashing. I am inclined to revert both, and perhaps add a more neutral entry for "It Is Pronounced "Tro-PAY"" to Bush's page, at least. Before I do, though, I wanted to run it by the other admins for their takes.
