I believe that the meaning of the term "activist" is being transmogrified away from it's customary meaning in the same way that the term "liberal" was changed starting about 10 years ago. I think that the people who are posting about this issue are right to identify public relations techniques of corporate entities as the source. The media just follows the fashion.
