Luckily, you can still say "power corrupts"

The CEO of the Tribune Company has put out a list of words and phrases his anchors aren't allowed to say on air because they keep the news from being "conversational." Say goodbye to "alleged," "no brainer," "unrest" and "reeling," along with "really." Really? He's right about "mute point," though.
