AP to its Reporters: Do Not Use "Dr" before the name of those who hold only a honery docterate |
Old Time Country Preacher |
The Associated Press Stylebook, under the section on the use of “doctor” in newswriting, the AP states: “Do not use Dr. before the names of individuals who hold only honorary doctorates.”
My gootness, you mean the media has got more integrity than some in the ministry? |

I would even question those institutions who give them away... MIT chancellor Eric Grimson said. “Our students work really hard to earn their degrees. We’re not about to give one away.’’ A man with principals. |

There's my answer.
I don't believe anything the media says.
Thus, call me Dr. NBF. _________________ Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today! |

Such a sad commentary on the part of preacher boys who use the title "Dr" based on a honery docterate alone. |
