* Business Doublespeak A short essay by William Lutz

* Booknotes interview with William Lutz on Doublespeak: The Use of Language to Deceive You, December 31, 1989.

Comparisons have been made between Doublespeak and Orwell's descriptions on political speech from his essays Politics and the English Language in which " unscrupulous politicians, advertisers, religionists, and other doublespeakers of whatever stripe continue to abuse language for manipulative purposes ".

Doublespeak is language that deliberately disguises, distorts, or reverses the meaning of words.

Doublespeak may take the form of euphemisms ( e. g., " downsizing " for layoffs, " servicing the target " for bombing ), making the truth less unpleasant, without denying its nature.

Although there is no mention of Doublespeak in Nineteen Eighty-Four, it has been argued that the term is a combination of two concepts-Doublethink and Newspeak which are original to his work.

Doublespeak might also have some connections with contemporary theories as well.

Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky note in their book that Orwellian Doublespeak is an important component of the manipulation of the English language in American media, through a process called ‘ dichotomization ’; a component of media propaganda involving ‘ deeply embedded double standards in the reporting of news ’.

Examples of the structural nature of the use of Doublespeak have been made by modern scholars.

William D. Lutz, serves as the third chairman of the Doublespeak Committee since 1975 to the present.

In 1989, both his own book Doublespeak and, under his editorship, the committee's third book, Beyond Nineteen Eighty-Four, were published.

Lutz was also the former editor of the now defunct Quarterly Review of Doublespeak, which examines ways that jargon has polluted the public vocabulary with phrases, words and usages of words designed to obscure the meaning of plain English.

He also mentions that the NCTE Committee on Public Doublespeak and their works with regards to educating the public on doublespeak is responsible for " the rather awesome task of combating the advertisers, the politicians, and the major manipulators of public language in our society.

The National Council of Teachers of English ( NCTE ) Committee on Public Doublespeak was formed in 1971, in the midst of the Watergate scandal, at a point when there was widespread skepticism about the degree of truth which characterized relationships between the public and the worlds of politics, the military, and business.

Bringing the charges of the two resolutions to life was accomplished by forming NCTE's Committee on Public Doublespeak, a body which has acquitted itself with notable achievements since its inception.

Hugh Rank formed the Doublespeak committee and was the first chairman of this committee.

He was also the founder of the Intensify / Downplay pattern that has been widely used to identify instances of Doublespeak being used.

Daniel Dieterich served as the second chairman of the Doublespeak committee after Hugh Rank in 1975.

He served as editor of its second publication, Teaching about Doublespeak ( 1976 ), which carried forward the Committee's charge to inform teachers of ways of teaching students how to recognize and combat language designed to mislead and misinform.

Doublespeak is also employed in the field of politics.

Doublespeak is often used by politicians for the advancement of their agenda.

Doublespeak Award is an " ironic tribute to public speakers who have perpetuated language that is grossly deceptive, evasive, euphemistic, confusing, or self-centered.

The recipients of the Doublespeak Award are usually politicians, national administration or departments.
