If the outlets managed to use it in different ways, great. This isn't all that different than the frequent segments on TDS (and Colbert, just not as much) where common phrases are parroted by the talking heads. The main distinction - at least to me - is that its a combination of consistent messaging and uncritical media in the political context, while in entertainment reporting it screams reporting by press release/wire service.
