This week some big news organizations started using the words "civil war" to refer to the situation in Iraq. We invited John Daniszewski, international editor at the Associated Press and Borzou Daragahi, Baghdad bureau chief for the Los Angeles Times to help us understand how these decisions get made. We ask them what power they think these words have, and who should choose them.
