What happened

I’ve always held a twisted fondness and crooked grin for the do-as-I-say not-as-I-do folks in our lives.

Why it matters

Mayor Rudy Giuliani forbade anyone in his administration from consorting with convicted felons.

Common ground

Yet, he was a frequent guest of twice-convicted felon George Steinbrenner at Yankees games.

Perspective signals

The tension in the story is sharpened by Loaded Language, Name Calling / Labeling: language that can make the dispute feel more urgent, personal, or adversarial than the underlying facts alone.
