While I usually enjoy your creative and often sardonic voice when reporting business news, this morning when you reported that the World Bank said the global economy would "pucker", you overstepped a boundary into flippant, irresponsible, inaccurate, and wholly subjective by your choice of the word, and conjured up alternative visual images of biting into pickles, and something entirely different a bit lower anatomically.
