re: #216 Nyet

I understand the ignorance of the US media when they distort basic history, but the German media should know better.

Well, as the article notes, Poland has been ramping up complaints about this. (When it was under Communist rule, the Party generally didn’t bother with the Holocaust at all.)

It also notes several news agencies upon receipt of requests to change their reporting have updated their style manuals to note they were Nazi concentration and extermination camps, not Polish.

(The style manual my publisher uses, though they deal with Romance stories and not the Holocaust, also notes that they should be referred to as Nazi camps if the issue comes up.)
