Freddy: But you surely don’t believe your aunt was killed?
Eliza: Do I not? Them she lived with would have killed her for a hatpin, let alone a hat.
Anyways, here are media examples:
1. This headline, from New York Daily News (June 29, 2009), suggests that Michael Jackson might have been killed by Demerol, an addictive pain-relieving drug:
Michael Jackson’s struggle with pain: Suspicion Demerol did him in.
2. This, from the Wall Street Journal (A Farewell to Harms, July 10, 2009) on what had failed Sarah Palin, the former US vice-presidential candidate who has announced that she would quit her post as governor of Alaska on July 26:
“The media did her in.” Her lack of any appropriate modesty did her in. Actually, it’s arguable that membership in the self-esteem generation harmed her. For 30 years the self-esteem movement told the young they're perfect in every way. It’s yielding something new in history: an entire generation with no proper sense of inadequacy.
