'Muslin' Spotted On North Carolina Newspaper-Blog

 A tipster spotted this angry letter about the Ground Zero Not-Mosque on the website of Raleigh, North Carolina's News & Observer newspaper. Instead of "Muslim," it uses the word "muslin" -- which your Wonkette uses all the time, because "muslin" is what the Prophet Muhammad actually called his followers. If you are a linguistics professor or a marketing guru, be sure to use this letter as a case study when speaking about "social media influence on language" or some other nebulous topic.
