Great statement by the AFP on the future of their IS coverage. Id particularly like to note their official adoption of IS jihadists and the like as a solid middle ground for style guidelines for other organizations. To quote Leridon in the statement: An international news agency cannot be pressured into using subjective terms like terrorists or slayers. Nor can we alter the name an organisation has chosen for itself. I still disagree that Islamic State gives credence to the organizations statehood, but I feel AFP has found the most agreeable middle-road for people, so they can feel comfortable using something more accurate than the old moniker of ISIS. blogs.afp/correspondent/?post%2Fcovering-the-islamic-state-afp#.VBr8IfldVUV
