FRESH is the blog, not about language, but about language and power. We are dedicated to the principals first so well articulated by George Orwell in his essay “Politics and the English language.” That’s where the title FRESH comes. Web search the essay for yourself.
The battle for control – control of money, control of people, control of you – begins with the fight over who gets to label. Do you support the “inheritance tax” but oppose the “death tax”? Are you against more “taxes” but for “long-term investments” in your favorite government programs? “Pro choice” or “pro abortion.” These examples are obvious as we point them out because we want to be clear about our mission. Posts address the power of language that may not be so easy to discern.
We’ll be looking at language in power through the Presidential Campaign. A particular interest right now, however, is humor in everyday language because of the new eBook Funny Business.
Read George.
