"BlackBerry" is in, and "widower" is out. "Hip-hop" finally makes the grade, and so does "boogie." It's the 2007 edition of the "AP Stylebook and Briefing on Media Law," now available in both print and online versions.
Norm Goldstein, editor of the 2007 version, says in a release that emphasis this year rests on the great functionality offered by subscription-based online access. "The online Stylebook provides searchable, instant access, with constant updates as well as notification of changes," Goldstein says. "It also allows the addition of a user's own entries to create a private stylebook."
The always closely-watched new entries include: carry-on; mentally retarded; Swift boat. Changes and updates include: daylight saving time; editor-in-chief; European Union. Deletions: widower; Laundromat; Woman’s Christian Temperance Union.
Cost of the spiral-bound book is $17.95 for general orders, with discounts for members of the news cooperative. Go to http://www.apbookstore.com for details on pricing and ordering.
