They have to say it today or it doesn't count? Do we have to do that with everything now? No more history!
I was thinking the same thing myself, history no longer matters. What was the past is past and should remain in the past? We heard "he walked with Martin" and repeated to this day, yet an article from 2 years ago is a no no when in fact it is as relevant today as it was then.
