This is a deliberate tactic on the part of those who support Michael Brown and believe he was unjustly shot by Darren Wilson.
If you use the phrase "teenager" to describe Brown, you cultivate a lot more inherent sympathy than if you use the phrase "man".
It's a classic example of controlling the message and directing the conversation by controlling the vocabulary of the message, because well-chosen words can influence the shape and character of all subsequent discourse and discussion.
An example of a genius master of this is leftist darling Noam Chomsky.
Lest you think that this is restricted to lefties, however, another avowed master of this tactic is Newt Gingrich.
If you want to control what people think, then you control the words they use to express those thoughts. That's not a new idea; George Orwell said it a long time ago.
