Dermot was known for his eloquence, hence the Blarney Stone's reputation for imparting the gift of the gab upon those who kiss it. The number of references to the MacCarthys in the Annals, especially the "Annals of Innisfallen", is very great.

Recently, concern that the language expected of the Israeli media was not sufficiently neutral included the complaint that the phrase "East Jerusalem" were prohibited by the guidelines.

A notable example of this would be CM Punk, who was managed by Paul Heyman from 2012 to 2013.
