Geoff Nunberg on CBS Sunday Morning with several I School Students

From CBS Sunday Morning

A delicate discussion on the “A-Word”

It's a very graphic and coarse word that many believe shouldn't be a part of civilized discourse, but it's often hard to avoid. As Mo Rocca reports, the word was created for a reason. He explores the origins of this vulgarity and its "appropriate" uses.

(The segment includes an interview with adjunct professor Geoff Nunberg, the author of “Ascent of the A-Word,” and quotes from several School of Information students.)
