Fuck direct quotes

By at 10:43 am Saturday, Jul 3

Kudos to the Washington Post for being the only newspaper to actually spell out the word "fuck" when it came from Dick Cheney's lips last week. The LA Weekly has a survey of the substitutions:
The Boston Globe: Referred to the expletive as a “vulgar directive” and provided no other clues.

Calgary Sun: “(Bleep) off” or “Go (bleep) yourself.”

Daily News (New York): “Go f— yourself.”
